Distinguish <more> and <attention!>
Right now <more> is used for two purposes:
1) when more than 4 events happen during a single turn
2) when something important happens
Due to the fact that (1) is becomes so common since mid-game, it's easy to just hold down space in every fight, to get rid of the <more> spam.
This makes it easy to miss the (2) type events. Example: viewtopic.php?p=268537#p268537. In less extreme cases, you can miss, e.g. "Okawaru grants you a gift!" while fighting through popcorn - not game-breaking, but still unpleasant.
Proposal: separate the two. Have <more> for (1) and <attention> for (2) with separate hotkeys skipping those.
Maybe, space skipping only (1) and enter skipping both. Or vice versa.
