In perceived order of reasonable-ness:
  * Stability, accessibility, performance and usability improvements;
  * A photo/video lens that integrates with Shotwell for the local 
library and with Flickr, YouTube, etc;
  * The book lens [1];
  * A bookmark lens that integrates the Firefox or Chromium bookmarks 
with services like Delicious;
  * Fully colour-managed desktop (the basics are there in 11.10 as far 
as I can tell);
  * Video support in Empathy;
  * SOHO server as discussed elsewhere (although I would expect that to 
take several iterations);
  * World peace.

Cheers,

Bruno
