I like to know the current bidder I'm sniping against. Sometimes this might make me inclined to raise my snipe (I don't want that moron to win, no matter what), other times I might not want to snipe against a friend. Of course this information is avaliable other ways, but it's so much simplier for AS to capture the high bidder along with the current price and display both in the report. Obviously, it the morons and friends are also using AS, this won't be terribly effective, but should cause no harm.
