Finally, someone with some "specifics" instead of just throwing around the word "innovation".
Vector editing would be interesting, especially if you could save those vectors in some sort of library. Audio editing.....not sure if that is a biggie. Finale does have, I think, the ability to include/record audio. But how many people actually use that? What I'd like to see is way way better midi/notation integration. I'm still amazed at the poor midi output Finale generates when I dump a score out of it and load it into Digital Performer or Logic.
