With many farmers having the full blockchain database, this seems like an ideal scenario for a searchable explorer in the GUI displaying data typically found on traditional blockchain explorer websites (and more data that might be too costly to serve).
Bonus Points: a way for 3rd party explorers (or dapps) to tap into the resource? (similar to wallet-only mode connecting to full nodes?)
(edited for bonus point explanation)
Imagine an existing explorer like Spacescan can make a downloadable plugin that can be added to the default application, similar to how "Tools" are being added, in full_node mode plugins could utilize the existing database but in wallet-only mode they could poll other nodes to gather and crunch the data to display what users desire, so rather than replace Spacescan you offer them a path forward as a plugin.
