Feature requenst: "Reveal Moat during this turn" button

I think Isotropic becomes a little better to have "Reveal Moat during this turn" button.
Today I played a game which might not so painful if in face-to-face play.
http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201109/16/game-20110916-175948-3511782f.html
There were Minion & Torturer, so I and my opponent constantly push "Moat" button, "none" button, "Moat" button, "none" button, "Moat" button, ... In turn 14 he misclicked, gaind a curse. This will never happen in face-to-face play.
I know that in theory there would be skillful play with Moat not to play it just at proper moment. This is just a suggestion; not a discontent.

I agree that that would be a helpful option. Another improvement, I think would be to ask how many Alchemists/Treasuries should be put back on deck, rather than one at a time.

I support this. whenever you have a Moat in hand and there are attack cards available, Isotropic should ask "Would you like to reveal Moat during this turn> yes no" If you click yes, it will instantly reveal Moat to any attack. If you click no, you will instantly take the hit of any attack (this would be useful if you want to discard to Militia to improve your Library draw, for example, without letting your opponent know you whiffed your Moat). If you do not click yes or no and an attack is played, you will be asked to reveal a Moat as normal (this could be useful if there are multiple attacks out, one of which you wouldn't mind being hit with and others that you wouldn't want to hit you).

Menagerie is a card where it would often be advantageous to have to discard.

Maybe even an "Always Reveal Moat during this Game" option for games with only simple attacks that you always want to defend against.

E.g. only Witch & Moat (no Gardens, Ambassador, Masquerade, etc...)

You don't want to reveal Moat to Witch after the curses have gone. It lets your opponent you have a weak card in hand and may, for example, let them realise that they have a better chance of success if they break the PPR.

Well, due to timing tells he will know anyway (it just takes a second to click "none"). This is also important for Minions for example.

That might be another possible feature. As soon as you've ended your turn and drawn a Moat, you can click checkboxes saying "Reveal Moat to Attacks" and "Don't reveal Moat to Attacks". If you don't click those boxes you have the decision every time, just like it is now. Otherwise it's done automatically without any timing tells or annoying delays.
