[Dxspider-support] An Idea for DX Spider

It's a feature already built into many logging and DX terminal programs.
RXClus for example has it built in. All spots that it receives from a
cluster are flagged with an L if the spotted station is a member of LOTW.

I don't really understand the issues other than it seems to require someone
to maintain an ever increasing database of callsigns that then needs to be
downloaded and installed frequently.

Is there anybody else out there that wants this? I know it has come up in
the past (2006) but the consensus then seemed to be that it was not a
feature that users wanted. Has anything changed since then?
