I will add a vote for this. In fact, I will add:

(1b) In old pan, I seem to remember that clicking an article or binary
thing that pan thought was "current" but the server then reported as
"expired" would cause it to change to a red "X" icon. I have not seen
this in new pan, which just fails to display the article.

I seem to have made my version of pan do this, but I cannot remember
how :) Was it an option somewhere on the save dialog?

(3) Is there a way to pre-cache articles and files. I would like to
multi-select a block of articles that I want to download for later
reading/saving, and then right-click and download - I think this was
also possible in "old-pan"

I can only agree with that sentiment.
