This is an awesome idea, and like others have said, props for thoughtful permissions management.
Oddly though, I found that the prolific tweeters were the ones I wanted to see, and the infrequent ones were less interesting. I have a core of prolific users (none of whom I have met) that I follow because I like their content, and then an outer constellation of people I follow because I know them. Tweets from the former actually have a better signal-to-noise. Is mine an unusual usage pattern for Twitter?
Ditto. e.g. heavier twitter users (at least the ones I follow) have better content overall, or, stuff I want to see. Otherwise I wouldn't follow them :)
The 'light' accounts I follow are mostly personal ones whom I'm interested in. This isn't a bad concept but I would rather it 'highlight' the less-tweeters among us and leave the standard ones alone.
e.g. highlight but don't detract from the busier folks. Probably proves useful for a lot of people but not for me.
