I second everything here.  I even belive tomboy should be installed by
default. It's to good to miss out on.

inotify will be in hoarys kernel anyway to adding beagle yourself
should be as simple as having a good beagle-apt-source (if it's not
default) and doing apt-get install beagle :)

Other things on my wishlist is gnome file diaglog and print dialog in
all major applications.  firefox, and OOo being the most obvious once.
