Proposition for new, more streamlined treaty interface

I posted something similar to this before, but it seems to have gotten lost in the forgotten last pages. I'm giving it another shot, but this time I've given the interface some more thought...

Treaty options are currently listed in a large radio button setup, one grouping per clause, but it would be better if there were both checkbox and radio button setups for each clause, as shown below: (Examples will be between the Eee and Xiati, because their names are short Sticking out tongue )

[] Share Technology
__[] The Xiati will share specified technologies with the Eee
____() 4 Levels old () 2 Levels old () Current () Current and Racial/Unique
__[] The Eee will share specified technologies with the Xiati
____() 4 Levels old () 2 Levels old () Current () Current and Racial/Unique

Also, more specific options would be very useful:

[] No Planetary Bombardment
__[] The Xiati cannot use planetary bombardment weapons
____() Against the Eee () Against any empire
__[] The Eee cannot use planetary bombardment weapons
____() Against the Xiati () Against any empire

Both of these changes would improve using the treaty interface, and allowing more specific treaties.

how about buttons that when

how about buttons that when clicked open up options below. so you don't have to scroll down, down, down to check if some crazy thing is checked (like you can do no research...).

hiding the specifics sounds good

If you mean that when you check a selection, the sub options appear, and if unchecked they disappear, that sounds like a good idea too.
