Copy Speed is half implemented (you can see references to it in the program, but it is greyed out) But it been pushed down the list since almost nobody uses it and there been more impotent things to complete first.

That's fair enough. I myself have used the copy speed restriction only twice so far. But modifying the queue list is a very useful function to have. Hope you can implement it in the next version.

Modify queue will not be in the next version..  It require quite a bit of work. but it is very high up on the "major feature to add" list.. So it will be added

Though I can use the find files options to view files in all the subfolders, I would like to view files only in selected folders.

I been planning something like that. But it is not an easy fix since a lot of commands in the Explorer Panel require that the current path of the item is the parent path of the item.. Showing multiple levels of items in a normal explorer panel results in all kind of strange issue.. But I got it on my list but it require lots of works to make it work.

I wonder if it would be easier to utilize a non-explorer ListView, that can contain pretty much anything, and then just limit what can be performed on such a list to a handful of custom-file operations, or even 'any file operation' but pass the full path of each file selected to said operation via a modified helper function/method, that would communicate to the normal internal functions that require the Explorer listview.

I've used AHK and other tools to create "file-lists" displayed in an on-the-fly ListView and the items are just treated as text-strings. Actions performed on said items, need to "FINDFILE/or interpret the string" before doing things like getting file properties (file-size, date, copy, etc).

Thus when using "Flat-View", hide the Explorer ListView, and display the non-explorer listview.

About the only thing I miss from the 'other' file manager, but I've commented on that once or twice before with a few conceptual ideas regarding it. Which is pretty much akin to having a Virtual-File-List/Virtual Panel.
