First off, congratulations on not just writing another extension, but adding some real value to FF extensions. There are way too many extensions that does not really do anything useful, but just do the same thing in 5 different ways.

There are a few improvements I would suggest:

1. Too much clutter (Would still like tickboxes)
Add tickboxes to the currencies in options so you can select which ones you want to see, or at least order them in some way. There seems to be no order. I have to search for GBP every time I want to use it. I'd love to have only 3 currencies visible in the drop down list, and don't care for the 20 odd others that just gets in the way.

2. Manual update --> Done (not outdated anymore)
I don't want to change this into something that can be used to flood the bank with traffic, but mine is usually at least 3 days behind. I'd love to be able to use today or yesterday's rates, but not last week's.

3. Correct descriptions (Done)
Change does not display the correct description of the currency when I hover over a currency in the drop down list with the mouse.

4. Automatic currency recognition
Another user requested this already, and it would be nice to have, but might be difficult to implement accurately in some cases. I'd put the other three issues above this one, as they hamper productive use more than this.
