Hi Michau,
to get the most out of such a cartridge, I think it would very useful to 
adapt your IEC kernal extension for all three available adress ranges. 
It would then be possible to use the extension together with for example 
calc result.
Also, as I already mentioned, adding bank 0 to the ram check would be nice.
Adding the CBM-II DOS Wedge (http://sourceforge.net/projects/cbm2wedge/) 
would make it even more useful I think.
My assembler programming skills are not sufficient for doing so.
