Have you though about making the hack so its possible to display different news for each cathegory or forum.
I think it would be great if the newsfader could have shown up in every forum (at least if its enabled for that forum) and show some news related to what that forumgroup has as a main theme.
Also, that would be a nice future, if you are hosting forumgroups for others(letting them have their own forum). That way they can decide their own news to be displaid.
