Good ideas, those. Database apps to be ported and finishing off USB2 drivers. We do need some more ideas to go along with those as well. Just remember that we need to keep things simple. Since I do not know the status of the USB2 driver or the author's motivation--I cannot say for sure whether that will happen or not, so keep ideas coming.

I'll throw in one myself, even if it isn't too terribly useful: How about a script-builder for Mencoder that could be used to convert movie formats and to embed soft-subs into the video-stream "hardcoded"? Shouldn't be too hard to do, and if using a recent mencoder version--it should support things like OGM and MKV and encoding methods like XviD, DivX, and WMV. The scriptbuilder could then either launch the file or output the file to an editor.
