Ah, thanks for reminding me about this, nice!

Thanks all for their suggestions so far, I have added all of them plus an extra. Now, if you want them implemented, some of you need to join as implementers and the features need to get a lot of votes quickly! ;-))

(Frankly, I don't think there is really any chance to make it, but I think having such a list of mid-size self-contained tasks might be useful for other occasions, so I will haul it over to the wiki after the deadline.)
