The thread about the survey (http://forums.ddo.com/showthread.php...wpost&t=343153) has mostly comments about the survey itself, but what did you put in the final box for comments?
Bet there would be some good suggestions, and hopefully turbine won't shelve them all.

Personally, i went with the points that:
a) The vitals should be separate from what you are examining. 'vitals' is a good word for seeing hp, sp and other status.
Thus the focus orb shouldn't be used for vitals. the question about it made me think turbine may be thinking about it.

b) The bars are useful in game and in combat beyond merely display of vitals. Ease of targetting is a must-have.
The bar that is selected should be highlighted properly, with a glow or edge.

c) Smaller is not always good. There's many 'visual' people and everyone does a bit of it.
Being able to see the hp bar diminish is important. A smaller bar don't help with that and the numbers put you off.
The vitals could be seen at a glance, spacing is not too good here as well.

If it was all about the pet stats then those can be shown elsewhere or different.
There's some ideas that are less intrusive with the UI. e.g. overlapping a light red bar with a dark red bar.
If they are thinking of the focus orb that'd be good for the pet only, since the arti would be the one concerned the most with it.
Perhaps a mood icon to show when the pet is hurt, etc.
