An api that makes the dock bounce, and makes the task bar button blink orange or whatever colour it blinks now-days. Iunno what linux does, though it's probably exactly what windows does!

It'd be nifty for anything that does live stuff

Also cool would be api for putting a little number circle thing on a dock icon. I've seen windows apps animate their task bar icon so perhaps it's even possible to make the icon in docks and windows totally animatable.. like a special canvas in shoes that you draw to and get a dynamic icon. Though if memory serves, in windows xp, doing such things was slightly flickery. Fun though!
