I for one would like it - but I'm with you: I doubt it's high on most
people lists (although, as a list-admin, Mike may have different
priorities). ;^)
The two biggest requests for new functionality I here are:
1) End of session processing (however it's done, an event model, a
special template handler, etc - people are always asking "how do I tell
when a user is about to time-out").
2) Direct Image manipulation (at the very least information access and
resizing - it seems like every other week somebody is asking how to do a
thumbnail gallery). This is pretty easy nowadays if you know a little
Java - but many CFers don't.
Even if NNTP's not "in demand" it does seem like one of the only major
protocols that CF doesn't support natively. For that reason alone it
might be nice to see it in there ("Supports all major Internet
protocols").
Personally I think we're doing pretty well - except for a few things CF
pretty much does it all. The vast majority of requests, it seems, are
for enhancements to existing stuff (and a good number of them are pretty
esoteric).
