It reminds me, that default Xwilling (text, which will be displayed by
chooser when selectiong server) is not very useful.

It can vary from network to network, but it can contain a system
version, processor speed, physical server location, system load in human
readable form or a message from admin ("Don't login, will be rebooted
soon.").

If there will be a standard for enhanced willing text, it can contain
all above mentioned items and can be interpreted and translated on
client side.
