My $0.02 is: A ) Create a Cocoon version of PetStore (XPetStore?) app similar to what JPetStore ( http://www.ibatis.com/jpetstore/jpetstore.html ) has done. This gives developers insight into the capabilities of Cocoon in a digestable manner.
B ) In order for Cocoon to make it in a huge way I believe that there needs to be buy-in from business entities (Mgmt types). With that said, I would prefer to see some sort of business problem domain tackled. Possibly a CRM app with pda capabilites.
