More clarity in VAT EC Sales List drop-downs

The 'Select Quarter' and 'Select Month' drop downs in the VAT EC Sales List report are not very friendly. At the very least, the drop-downs should state the actual period (e.g. '01-Apr-2012 to 30-Jun-2012'. Ideally, the system would remember that my company has either Monthly or Quarterly returns, and suggest which period I need to report. If at all possible, electronic reporting back to HMRC would be amazing!
I fully appreciate that this is liekly to be a little used feature for most ClearBooks clients, so understand if not much development can be justified... but the more clear drop-downs shouldn't be too hard, eh?
