I totally want some sort of Steam Group association with other game servers, TF2 especially. I love how L4D is tied to them, even in it's currently exploitable manner. I'd also like to see the Server Banner be added to the TF2 scoreboard or something else other than the MOTD.
Also, you can invite people to other games, but it is kind of a bug. When you are in-game, go to your Friends list and set your status to Away, then set it back to Online. Voila, you can now right-click Invite To Game.
