Features

- When you click on a user, contribs show to the right. Click on one, and you get a diff above.
- The block form, and its amazing ability to block users.
- The block form gives you some options, similar to the real block form. It notifies the user automagically that they have been blocked with Template:GBlock.
- Huggle-style diffs
- In the block form, you'll see previous blocks.
- A somewhat streamlined interface thanks to User:J.delanoy (he showed me how it would be good)
