Isn't that how it's supposed to be? ;-)

Love/Ban shows up like on the web skins: in place of the shuffle/repeat
icons on the NowPlaying overlay. You get to that by clicking on the
empty cover art screen on NowPlaying. That's also where TrackStat
rating is.

MusicIP: Not yet, sorry for that, will be in one of the next upgrades.
I think Michael suggested to put MIP playlists into favorites.

Yes, an observation I have also made on Apple's own remote (yet not on
the iPod application). We had quite a bit of discussion around this
during beta and it's a bit of a tradeoff. The default behavior of that
slider is that you can click anywhere and it will jump to that
position, but most testers thought that's a bad behavior because you
can easily change your volume by accident. Now you have to drag the
handle (BTW, that's how Apple themselves do it, too, although their own
control doesn't support that mode "out of the box"!) which for some
reason sometimes seems to be hard to hit.
I'll try to further improve it.

OOps. I'll investigate.
That it drops out after a while is on purpose because the edit mode
blocks updates to the playlist (e.g. through the playlist changing in
the background, as is the case for dynamic playlists).
That's due to a strange error in Apple's UITableView controller class
that drops elements from the list when updating while dragging
something. I'll also investigate if that's still an issue with 2.2

Great to hear!

Are there any plans to support local playback? (through the stream.mp3
for example) to get around the streaming issue the iPhone has with any
mp3 streams....

Definitely.
