A good addition for GPMC is the Acctinfo.

This add-on is helpful if you need to know when a user has logon the last time , when has changed the password or when the user account was locked.
All these information in Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in are partially reported.

Acctinfo.dll is part of ALtools (available on Microsoft website, Link: www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=...) , this tool was initially designed by Sysinternals and after was included on the Microsoft Technet.
