Agree with you on the enable/disable part of things. I actually think a offline version of Steemit UI shall be created. IMHO offline Apps work quicker when going through posts/comments as well as filtering and searching through your own HOME channel and comments received and send. Then such tools should become part of the offline App as well, it are just features of the software.

Steemit UI / offline App should for sure get a personalisation capabilities, so every user can configure all sort of things, like features, settings, post filters (like some of the curator platform are doing).

There are a few apps that may be doing some of these. Some people will want lots of stats like you can get from other social sites. Filters will be essential as we gain users. We have some great developers playing with all this

Indeed Stats like on FB, Google etc are important, especially also when paying content visibility through eg Promotion channel. But also to find your sub-community better.
