Proposal for a Voting GUI

Hi every one, I have been thinking for a while about implementing a GUI system for the Voting
Here is my prototype of the GUI (made with Gimp, not actually implemented in the client yet):


My thoughts are that every user can divide there Voting Power (VP) on up to 100 different addresses by giving each address 1 VP. If I give 60 VP to the MCF, that would mean that 60% of my coins are voting for this address, while my other 40% would still be free to vote for other addresses.
As you can see, you can add and subtract VP, so if the initiative you have supported dose not full fill its promises, you can remove your VP and use them on other addresses.
On the left bottom you can see a button saying " Generate grant address", when clicking on that a window should appear with a impute field for the description where you can put the name/reason and link to a website/forum for more info; also when creating a new grand address you have to pay a fee of lets say 25MEG, which will be refunded should the address get enough Vote support or else, if it dosn´t get enough VP after lets say 7 days, your address will be removed from the list and at the same time you will get the 25MEG back; though there should  be a notification about that in the same pop up window as the description field.Should you have the required funds and have filled the text field you can then proceed to generate the address, which then will get listed in the List.
The 25MEG are there to prevent people/bots to spam the List with hundreds,thousands or even millions of grand proposals, which would/could brake the system.
I hope I explained my idea good enough and have not confused you all, but I hope the image will help you understand Smiley
Please think about it, discuss it and add new Ideas if you have some!
If this idea gets positive feedback and we have a final prototype, we can look into the technical stuff of getting it implemented, though for that we would need someone how knows how to program.
I cant program, but if this idea gets the backing of the community then I hope to find someone that will help out or if I don´t we could set up a bounty were every one can contribute to for a professional to do it.
I think a coin is as good as the dev and the community behind it, lets demonstrate that Meomorycoin is a good coin Wink
