I'd like to see gestures, and while true kinetic ones might stop ease of implementating webOS-styled ones, flicking cards away etc...without copying stacks, cards and the rest, I brainstorm the following -
Slice through an application to close it, drawing a line through multiple applications would close the selected ones and long pressing on an application would enter "edit" mode allow you to re-order applications by hand. Task "pages" would also be nice for those who keep many applications open, you could designate one "page" for Conversation windows, one for browser windows and one for other applications. All spawned applications would go into their respective "pages" based on grouping or into the "last" page if there was none. They would be accessed by swiping left and right on the dashboard.
Perhaps even "global gestures" that allow simply "slicing" an application from within any window to kill the process would be nice too.
This obviously means heavy modifications to hildon, hildon-desktop, hildon-home and probably the underlying recognition engine as well as whatever is overlayed on X between the WM, so I don't ever imagine this becoming possible.

I can not believe it took me a year to find out that holding the dashboard button while in application takes me straight to desktop...
