Good list. And good to see ya back

However, I do have some comments:
#1 - Correct.
#2 and #5 - you can find extra important info about these on my site.
#3 - it is hardcoded into the EXE, but it
can presumably be changed - see #7.
#4 - you're correct, but there's a workaround - Psycho's written a tutorial about this.
#6 - hmmm... Psycho's Technician tutorial?
#7 - Using a ResHacker type program allows you to reenable the third campaign button (Blade has more info), (presumably) modify the color list, and much much more.
#8 - You can use MigAttackCursor= and SabotageCursor= to get different cursors, but they have some hardcoding attached to them.
