Yeah, the list of claimants. I actually missed that one. Thanks! I'll be sure to get some attention on that as well.
For your second issue: The location of characters are now displayed in their tooltip, should be just below a character's age. We removed it from the character view in order to make room for the new layout. It takes some getting used to, but the good thing is that you are always able to see where they are, without having to change interface (like from a character list or an event).
EDIT: Also, we were discussing of bringing back the "go to location" button as well. It just didn't make it into this version of the Open Beta.
