Some thoughts from me:
13. (or 12a ;)) Make dialup for user more easy. I don't like SuSE but their
kinternet is a good example how it should be done.
In these point I could think of:
- configure one standard application for the given dial-up type ready to use
- point these out, or in case its in kicker or a gnome applet start it
- fix some isdn-stuff
- make use of group pppusers for all kind of dialup connections and set
rights accordingly
