the IE team are planning to fix quite a lot of stuff. See their list at http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2005/07/29/445242.aspx for details.
I'd encourage everyone who is currently using IE hacks to pay close attention to the list of support improvements on this page, most notably the support for additional selectors. Many people use IE's current lack of support for the child selector to hide rules from it, but IE7 will supposedly understand the child selector, so your hacks may stop working, while the bug you were hacking for may still be present. That equals very bad news for your page. If you are using this type of hack, I'd take the time now to examine your pages and move over to conditional comments.
I personally use the star html hack for IE all the time, so I really hope they don't fix that in IE7. It doesn't do any harm, and it serves as a nice filter. I may need to switch entirely to conditional comments, though.
