Multi-character management

I have spent quite a bit of time (and real life money) building my 3 game characters. Dare I say, more of each than those with only 1 character.

However it seems the game is designed around only 1 character per account.

To make it slightly easier for those of us with multiple characters:
1. Inspect our other characters

I'm playing my rogue and I'm offered warrior equipment. I would like to know what I have equipped on my warrior to see if it will improve my stats.

2. Quick character switch.

My warrior is the guild master, I get a PM on the Rogue requesting promotion. I would like to be able to switch to my warrior in the character page (the one with "Quit to Menu" on it. Without the rigmarole.
This would also be handy for Klaas and Shazbot ally dailies.
Perhaps just a "Switch character" button.

3. Messages to my "offline" characters

I'm online, but someone PM's my other character - could the message be forwarded to me?

4. Friend pooling

I "friend" someone if I like their gameplay, not because I'm a warrior or a sorceror....
The block option pools people across game characters, could the same not be done for friends?
There could even be a separate tab on the social page to list these friends if you don't want to actually merge the lists

I support this. even thought it might seem unfair to those with 1 acc.
But then again They gave Us the ability to purchase these Char.Slots.
