For a start, we could move as you suggest all the infos currenlty 
between "FS:" and "REC" on a 2nd line (ram, tos, machine, ...)

I'm not sure about CPU core type, as this really depends on the exe you 
ran, and eventually it should disappear one day when we only keep 
winuae's cpu.

Same for spec512, I always set the threshold to 1, and I think every 
user should do the same, unless you're really using programs that will 
never change colors on the same hbl. So, I think it would be confusing.

For monitor, we could put mono, rgb, gva, tv or vdi.

Joystick can have many choices (STF, STE, parallel port). Most used are 
certainly joy 0 and 1, and maybe joypad A and B (never tested them)
We could have sthg like : "JOY ..." if those 4 are disabled, or "JOY 
J..." if real (J)oystick is enabled on joy 0, or "JOY ..K." if STE 
joypad A is emulated using (K)eyboard ?

This should leave some space on 2nd line for some debug options
