 >     o The finder should include a tree structure view of an HFS volume.


Should take this one a bit further...  Flip up the tree click on the folder
you want, select some files, flip up the tree again, click on another folder
and copy/move those files.  None of this, open 6 folders to get at the one you 
want, close 5 of them because they're in the way, open a couple more folders to 
get at the target folder, etc...  Even with the windows imploding to an icon, 
you still have to wade through the hierarchical swamp...


Need some sort of a wildcard selection scheme too..  I can't remember, does the 
new Finder allow XCMDs?  (I'm beginning to see XCMDs everywhere now)  That 
would truly allow some awesome customization.
