I mean improving the language as well.  As Dossy said, there are a few things 
that could be added to the language that would "make the language geeks go 
'ooh!'", and a few others that would just make life a little more powerful.  
This is the sort of stuff that most of us can't take as active a role in doing, 
but they would still make a big difference.
