-
* Think of media server, VoIP, contact lists, camera, GPS localization. Currently developers only have the low level API's, while mostly they just want a widget that displays the mentioned data and listen to user interaction signal or device signals. This also makes these functionalities look the same in all applications using them

* A PIM system that can be tied into by developers, to provide PC synchronization etc.

Tools to bring platform innovation to adventurous users.

** A equivalent to telepathy for calendar and contact list: A well integrated framework.

** Better video call support

* Global sync-software

* Office suite. (???) see discussion

* Unionfs support built into the kernel (So users don't have to flash initfs and boot from SD, or make symlinks gone wild, just to install a few extra apps)

-
* a2dp
+
-
* Better support for right-to-left languages, such as Arabic, and Hebrew.
