Ability so set ACL permissions would be good as well

Could be tricky since the RH builds of Openoffice have Java disabled. Don't know if anyone is working on integrating OOo with gcj (which would also make other Java extensions like the (limited) Docbook editing support work).
- Files copied from the CD does not necessarily inherit "-w"

I was wondering why that is the default too. At the kernel/shell level I can understand copying will transfer attributes, but from a user's perspective the most common reason for making a copy from a read-only medium is to be able to edit it.
- Give Recursive Write Permissions for Directories moved to ~/.Trash/
Directory
I disagree. If someone makes some subdirectory read-only there usually is a reason. Maybe to prevent it from being accidentally deleted...

Hi, To be very blunt:
+ Individual bug reports work much better than a "petition"
+ Patches work even better
A random list of things which you consider important to be fixed is not at all helpful to developers and will just be ignored. I know you're intentions are good here, but bug reports/patches are the only way to go ...
Thanks, Mark.

Im playing with these but codecs alone do not make a product
- Predefined Templates in the ~/Templates/ Directory
See discussion in places like Desktop-Devel about the huge internationalisation issue with such directories.
- Download Managers with Resume features, Support for BitTorrent.
Suggestions ?
