REFLECTOR: Annunicators?

[Terrence Miles]

An argument can be made that push to test lights were for the incandescent
days when bulbs actually burned out.  Still it is a re-assurance.

So I'm thinking about building an annunicator panel (with a "Push-to-Test"
and dimmer). 

Currently the list of indicators I have come up with is:

Pilot Door Unsafe - RED
CoPilot Door Unsafe - RED
Low Voltage - RED
Low Oil Press - RED
Nose Gear Down - GREEN
Left Main Down - GREEN
Right Main Down - GREEN
Fuel Pump On - AMBER
Hydraulic Pump On - AMBER
Pitot Heat - AMBER

I'm going to have a pair of GRT displays so I'm thinking the low voltage,
low oil press would be provided by their engine monitoring and would be
unnecessary on an annunicator.

What else would be good to have on an annunicator panel? Landing, nav and
strobe lights?
