How about:

10.  An option (a switch) to allow making windows active WITHOUT bringing
them into focus (that is, without redrawing the entire window)?  Often
seeing just a part of the active window is all I need.

11.  A shutdown with just one prompt.  I am looking for a way to avoid
getting prompts from all the running applications and telling each one that
yes, I want its window closed.  Or perhaps there is a way to do this and I
should read manuals?
