> clean up the HTML code in the site definitions and get rid of webbots
> change security model from show user everything & let them know when they try to do something they don't have permission for to select that option/disable links users can't access/hide things user doesn't have permission to do
> make creating new site definitions much easier... use the CMS model... provide controls and such... like ASP.NET 2.0 that where you can define zones yourself
> Get rid of FrontPage... isn't VS.NET supposed to be THE MSFT IDE?
> Enhance the customization/control of the ghosting/unghosting option of pages
> streamline configuration files: there are WAY too many in to many different places... and no editor to edit them other than nodepad

That's just a start.
