In the meantime while Packet finishes his to do list I have put up a page that makes EQAtlas a little easier on the eyes.

Let me know what you think (not nearly as nice as Packet's implementation but I only felt like spending 10 minutes on this).
Edit: It is modal and involves not having to load up a ton of separate browser tabs to keep your place.
