i think he's asking about going the other way around... when viewing the
nodes' configuration screens, bring something up to be able to select the
areas they are connected to instead of having to go to each area and add
the node... then press enter or space on each echo area to add the node to
them...

i think the idea is something like node x:y/z signs up for your services
and they want areas a,b,c,d,e,f,g so when you add that node into your
config, you bring up the echos list and just tag them to add the node to
them... maybe even allow adding by groups in this same way... by that i
mean adding them to a group of echos like "group b: fidonet backbone
areas" which would contain like 180 or so areas at this time... makes
for a real quick way to add them to 180 areas instead of having to visit
each of those 180 areas and add the node that way...
