I would like to suggest to put the "ID number" option side by
side to the option "Variable name" (please take a look at the
.png file attached).
The placement in the dialog box that I chose for this item may
well not be ideal, but I'm afraid I like even less the placement
you have suggested. It's bad (IMO) to have the ID number selector
to the right of the GUI apparatus for saying "OK" and moving to
the next or previous series, when all the other configurable
options are left-aligned.

I would like to support the Sven's suggestion:

Well, what functionality, exactly, would you like to have attached
to an icon representing a named list? I can imagine various
responses, but I suspect they would simply duplicate (for no
user-level value-added, but considerable programming effort)
effects that you could achieve by choosing a list under the main
window Data menu, and hence selecting all the list-members.
Perhaps, though, my imagination is failing me here. Please feel
free to make suggestions.
