What do you want to see in Leopard?

This is a dream thread, What would you like to see in leopard? This could be anything from Eyecandy type things, down to sheer coding is its to your liking, new things and features included in the OS.

mine would be.

1. Simple Microsoft API (.exe) support
2. An active desktop,basically dashboard on the desktop.
3. More complete photo editing in iPhoto

I'd like to see it released!

1. Better port-redirection options for printers
2. More customizable GUI (without requiring kludgy add-ons)
3. An "advanced" mode for Spotlight that will dredge the entire disk, including hidden and system folders, given root authentication.

iPhoto isn't part of OS X, its part of iLife

Well agreed, for purposes of the topic omit that one....but I still want it.

I highly agree with that one!

ooo...i want a feature that turns my mac into a blender complete with frappe setting and a feature that gives my dog a bath!!

A much approved Finder or a replacement, maybe something akin to a launcher-type app.

I believe this topic has been covered elsewhere, because someone in another thread mentioned a desire for tabs in Terminal -- and I completely agree with them. If Apple doesn't include this, I'm going to scream. And then I'm going to buy Leopard anyway.

While we're at it, I'd like to see a more scriptable Terminal...

I'd like to see folders that I can password protect without having to make a disc-image.

I'd mainly like to see a Release Date...

Better Customisation of the Interface, Spotlight to be alot quicker more like QuickSilver, better support for Home Networking (make it easier ) and also to Password protect certain folders.

lol

Good call.

I forget whether this is a hardware or software issue (I'm pretty sure hardware) but, if possible, I would like to have A2DP-enabled bluetooth for my MBP so I can use wireless earphones to listen to music. I think this is going to be big in the near future and the technology is already there. It's time to cut the cord!

I haven't heard anything about this for the iPhone, but I'm preying it's a feature not released yet. It's already so much a downer that there's no 3G compatibility on a product that requires downloading entire web pages!!

i wish you could adjust the volume controlls between seperate programs

Another thing is a more improved searching functionality. It never works for me inside folders.
