Let's Talk Scoreboards

A cool feature of Minecraft Servers is the ability to implement custom scoreboards. These are useful for keeping score of who has the most kills, who's died the most, or some servers even use them as currency. It is a really awesome feature and I think it could work really well for the server.

What are your opinions? I'm thinking it would be cool to have score counts in the sidebar and death counts next to usernames. That's not official as of the time of this writing, but I'm definitely interested in implementing scoreboards into the server. Of course, I welcome your feedback on this idea!

EDIT: Three scoreboards are now active! Holding down TAB to view the currently logged-on players shows everyone's health -- in half-hearts -- next to their connection strength. Above players' heads, under their usernames, is their total PvE (Player vs. Enemy) kills. In the sidebar on the right of the screen is the total deaths for players on the server whose total deaths are equal to or greater than one.
