I'm somewhat familiar with the source. Like you, I don't have
much time presently though. :-(
Here's more from my wishlist:
* EWMH support to make ion3 integrate more completely in
desktop environments such as gnome. I wrote a tiny module
that updates the pager, but it's not sufficient to allow the
pager to control ion3:

* Migrate more core functionality to lua to minimize the
portion written in C. For example I re-implemented
maximization in lua because the version in C was too
limited and wasn't extensible. (This is for floating
workspaces.) The same module provides sawfish-like window
pushing and maximize-fill.
