As long as we're on a "K10D wishlist" thread I'll add my two cents.

The thing that bugs me most is something they did *right* on the ist-D 
and messed up on the K10D: Mirror pre-fire. On the ist-D it's achieved 
by pressing a drive mode button on the top of the camera - I can do it 
while looking through the viewfinder (though it would be nice to have 
an indicator *in* the viewfinder!)

On the K10D you have to go through a menu. This is the kind of design 
for which Michael Reichmann has (rightly) criticized Canon for years.

(On the other hand, the K10D is an improvement over the ist-D in one 
are with regards to mirror pre-fire: You can use mirror pre-fire *and* 
infrared remote shutter release -- with the ist-D you had to choose one 
or the other, but not both.)
