Maybe a good starting point is to create a webpage (http://oscar.openclustergroup.org/comp_gui) with bullet points for each problems you identify. That will allow us to interate on the subject, maybe have at some point a todo list, and maybe even motivate people to work on that.
For instance, today i had 20 minutes during which i wanted to do something else: i went to ticket tracking system, saw a ticket for the "Select All" feature for the "Delete OSCAR clients" widget and i implemented it. That was simple, it closes a bug that was open for a while, and it is a pretty usefull feature. :-) I can see similar stuff for the different OSCAR efforts... and actually i should do that for OoD (i have currently something like that but it is kind of unclear and difficult to find).
