To some extend I think the same, especially as I often dive with the
same group of friends (and we act as a group of five divers together,
not as two and three...). 

What I do want to do, though, is to sort them alphabetically.  There is
no reason why "Linus, Justin" and "Justin, Linus" should be two
different entries.

Still, visually I love the thing that the Mac toolkit does...
