When static lists are created, it would be great to be able to convert them to Active lists so you do not have to replicate many filters, and just for ease of use, in general.

Definitely a feature that would be nice to have. There have been many instances where I created a static list only to later need it to be active. Recreating the list is not only time consuming but you then have to update any reports that reference the static list.
