I think that an API for declaring read-only fields and the ability to
edit multiple objects on the same page are some wanted features which
have been discussed on this list. I'm not sure if you would consider
those suggestions pure interface design though.

All the things enumerated so far seem more like a list of small
features. So I assume that for a GSoC proposal you'd need to suggest a
coherent approach rather than a list of minor fixes/feature
extensions. As for including jQuery (or any other javascript library),
I doubt this will be received favourably. Going for plain javascript -
even if it's a bit more challenging to do - is a good way to find
overall consensus.
