The ability to see who's the host in games on the BYOND Hub. That would be a nice addition.

YES, I know you can do it with world.status already; but how many people think of that one right out of the box?

Besides, world.status should be, um, reserved, for other purposes, like showing an actual status (like "Starting..." and "Started" for round-based games and stuff; but the developer can set this)

This is planned for BYOND 4.0. The goal is for the interaction between Dream Daemon and the hub to require a key logged into the pager.

Too few indeed. And even though you can do this with world.status in Dream Seeker, authenticating a host is many times harder in Dream Daemon. Incursion's new version will only be able to do that with a bootstrap.
