Viewing family members on an individual page
I was just thinking it might be handy to have a three column view of a person's family, when that person has married. You see the highlighted family member, their spouse, and children on one column and that highlighted person's parents on a second column. Why not a third column with the spouse's family on the other side? Just thinking it would save me clicks when I'm trying to understand a family.

On the individual's ("person") page in Family Tree there is already the provision to view the next (earlier) generation. For a wider view, just switch to "View Tree", whereby you do have the ability to view an extended family branch. Please explain how the existing option of charts (centred on an individual) is not suiting your needs.

As Gordon said, an intriguing idea, but I'm afraid it'd be too confusing. People already get confused by the Family Members section -- there was a recent thread here about a "duplicate person with the same ID" -- and adding another column, with a different person highlighted than in the other two, or actually potentially multiple different people highlighted (in case of multiple marriages), would not clarify things at all.
