Things I'd Like to See in Leopard

WWDC is rapidly a roaching and along with it we'll get our first preview of the features in Leopard. And so I've started to think seriously about the things that I'd like to see in Leopard. In no particular order:

A New Finder
I've disliked Mac OS X's Finder since Mac OS X first shi ed. It's not nearly as streamlined or versatile as it should be. It wa 't until Tiger that the Finder began to handle gracefully a disco ected server volume. I certainly don't mi the days when a disco ected server volume often meant restarting the computer. The Finder has gotten better by degrees, but it's still got a long way to go. For i tance, why can't we have the Finder colum autosize itself to filenames so the full filename(s) is visible i tead of having the user have to manually resize the column width? And if the Finder can remember window placement, why can't it remember a custom column width that I've manually set on a window? Also, why can't the green plus button be either a zoom/shrink button (as it is now) or a maximize button (a la Windows)? While I personally don't like full-screen window usage, I know that having such a UI element as an optional preference would greatly ease the switching proce for Windows users. And why must we resize our windows only from the bottom right corner? Writing about the Finder just makes me angry, so I'll move on now.
