Web Development that should have happened but still can

With all the back and forth we've had over Account Tiers, Paragon Reward Tiers, and content and items unlocked at the store, it came to me that this idea would be a life saver for people returning to the game, looking to change their status, or trying to figure out how many points they need for the things they want:

Kick up the account info page several notches. Turn it into a live rundown of everything open on your account.

- No more "Perk" that has no specific name, list everything in detail.
- No more math required to determine when your next reward is coming, have a countdown timer.
- Make a configurator tool so you can see what happens if you drop down a tier or buy upward.
- Have a cost calculator so you can budget out how many points to buy over time.
- Get a character list of what's available on each Live server.

I know this is a lot of what was being planned for the Vault. However with all the options in Freedom this kind of tool really should be available. This proposal doesn't fall into the hole the Vault fell in because it doesn't pulled detailed character info off the game servers (which I've heard is what broke the previous plans).

This should almost all be info that's available in the new back end for the Paragon store and the account server. It's just a personal web tool for your own account at a glance so you can get detailed info as needed, without guesswork.

I'm Captain Photon, and I dig this idea's ditch.
