I'm more interested in something that we've discussed but that didn't
make it onto your list: support for Concepts, using the extended C++
syntax proposed by
http://www.osl.iu.edu/publications/prints/2005/siek05:_concepts_cpp0x.pdf

If I get my way, that syntax will be adopted by C++ anyway.  It's
highly compatible with existing C++ syntax, so it should be very easy
to modify the existing parser to accomodate it (it's already been done
for GCC so we know it's pretty easy).
