I am currently building a site admin with EXT and one feature that I know is useful for clients is the ability to easily filter our data and create a grid based on data that they need then export to Excel or CSV. So that is one feature that would be very cool to have in a mootools UI library.
Excellent work so far and I look forward to updates...
