uTorrent has a Last Active column that lets users know how long it has been since each torrent has been accessed -- i.e., since the last time that torrent has successfully sent or received a chunk.
I typically have about 100-200 torrents running at any given time, and, when disk space is running low, I've found the Last Active column to be almost indispensable in helping to figure out which torrents to delete.
For instance, you might have a six-month old torrent that hasn't been accessed in four months, and a two-year old torrent that still gets accessed once every week or two. In that case, you'd want to get rid of the six-month old torrent instead of the two-year old torrent, but without the Last Active column there's really no good, consistent, way to find out that information.
That's why I think it's such an important feature, and why I'm submitting a suggestion/request for its implementation.
[Edited to Add: It's also exceptionally useful for the Last Active column to be sortable, in case that wasn't self-evident from the body of the post.]
