Would be nice to have the ability to make one or more wanted lists "public" so that if a link was provided to the list other folks could see the list. This would work similar to Amazon.com wish list in that others can see but not edit the list. In my mind, this would be a check box on the wanted list settings (and creation) screen. Default would be unchecked (meaning private). [X] Public List It would be useful in facilitating purchases for gifts (like little Tommy wants a bunch of batman minifigs so he adds it to his wish list so grandma can buy one for him by viewing his list), and for facilitating trading because people can see what the seller would like as payment for the trade items. Everything else about the wanted list would work the same as it does now - except that if viewing by someone other then the owner there would be no editing fields available.
