Hello Jonathan, For #1, No, this is not possible currently. I will pass on the suggestion to the development team. Meanwhile, you can download the BLAT source and use locally if you have the resource.
http://genome.ucsc.edu/FAQ/FAQblat.html For #2, There are no plans to include plant genomes at UCSC. However, there are some plant genome project that incorporate a UCSC Browser mirror. Another option is to create a browser locally and create your own assembly using public data. http://genomewiki.ucsc.edu/index.php/Other_genome_browsers http://genomewiki.ucsc.edu/index.php/Mirror Maize genome project: http://archive.maizesequence.org/index.html Hopefully this helps to get you started. If you need help with a mirror or Blat, please let us know.
