I agree with your other points, but I simply can't understand the problem with the list being long. It's a scroll view, not a scrolling movie credit you have to wait for if you want to behave well in a cinema. :-) I just don't see the benefit of the list being short. That's the one place in Haiku were the credits are shown. Why would you want to thin the list? If your name belongs in the credits, you just want it in there and be proud. If your name does not belong in the credits, why would you want to look at the list but only when it's short? I agree it may be useful to make top contributors stand out, just to be able to know who was most influencial - or who is most likely to blame for an annoying bug... :-) 

Best regards,
