ACS Change or add New Nav for i

I use ACS a lot. and I have connections to lots of partitions. It would be nice if the 'Navigator for i' could be changed to New Nav for i or Nav4i. If not can it be added to the 'Hardware Management Interface' (which could also be renamed). If so can you also add New Certificate Manager. OR allow us to configure our own headings.


Use Case:

I use ACS frequently and find it a useful starting point. I use 5250, SSH, Run SQL, Db2 Web Query, Navigator for i New and Old, HTTP Manager, Certificate Manager New and Old so it is a pain to have to look up the URL for New Nav and have to copy and paste or type it in for multiple machines, when I could just find it in the list like I do for the others.

    This is planned for our next update. By default, "Navigator for i" will launch to new Navigator. In addition, we will allow you to rename "Hardware Management Interface 1 & 2" to customized names using properties set in the AcsConfig.properties file.
