Using the Linode Manager, it takes me two clicks to find the private IP of a server, which is then buried in the middle of the page and not even on a line by itself, so copying it requires extra care. This seriously slows me down when configuring things like node balancers and hosts files, enough that I think it is the most annoying thing about the site!

Please consider this a request for that IP address, which is essential information for people who use it, to be on the main "Linodes" page in its own column.

Does anybody else agree?

It will eventually not matter, because with IPv6 there's no public/private IPs, you're simply not billed for internal traffic.

Then at that point I would complain about the IPv6 address not being in the table. The information we need to access our servers should be there.

Personally, I wouldn't care. I've got my notebook with all the important administration info. I'd hate if I had to login to Linode for every little info lookup, it's easier to open the bookmarked notebook page. :)
