Priorize user in buddy sorted playerlist to the highest position (according to sort order ofc) and make buddies to default sort.
Also in status sorted playerlist put user among players with same status to the highest position (again ofc according to the sort order).
Highlight the user status und rating with a user color (blue). (Maybe we abandon the user symbol ("‣") as for in buddy column at the moment, feeling also no more good as its maybe to much : ) ).
Highlight game, where the user is listed as player in blue color and with the user symbol and keep the game in first position in gamelist, so he can easily find the game back, where he has been playing in, if he got disconnect f.e. (This could be also be done by D1091)
appears (nice color : ) )
