I have no affiliation with them, but find them really handy for components in low quantities and since rs/farnell started charging delivery on small orders - they are a very expensive proposition for one or two components.
Done

How to do the same for outputs, how to switch a relay from an arduino/pic - i know many people have killed their processors connecting directly to a relay.
Yes, that would probably be very helpful, most of the current resources 
sections are based on the workshops we have run, someone (possibly me) 
should probably run a "Basic Electronics" workshop and add the relevant 
section to the website.

All users on the website have their own page, that is probably where I 
would put things like that.

Your coming up with useful points and generating much needed discussion, 
the space is very little without the community that goes with it.
