I'm a pretty new user to Dashboard (for about a two weeks now) and I've just completed making my first skin (I'll post it soon after I work out a couple nit picky details), but I thought I would add my two cents to things I would like to see...(These may have been mentioned before)

Here are a few features I would like to see implemented in future versions:

- Ability to see sub-category headings in Tasks when "All" is selected. It would be great to see a breakdown of all your tasks organized by category, with category headings as dividers.

- Agenda View: It takes two clicks to turn an arrow up. From what I can tell, one click on the arrow turns it right which condenses the appt. to one line. However, if the appt. is already one line, you still have to hit the arrow twice to put it all the way up. It would be nice if the arrow automatically went up if the appt. was already one line.

- For skinning purposes: It would be nice to be able to move the battery meter anywhere on the screen. Right now it is kind of hanging out in the agenda or tasks, etc. I would like to be able to move the position of it.

Great program and I'm really enjoying the customization features. If any of the above are already possible, and I'm just not aware of it, someone please let me know.

I thought I had a couple other ideas too, but I can't remember them now...I'll post them here if I remember.

Another thing related to the Battery Icon - It would be nice to be able to click on it and have it take you to the Battery Power menu. Then you can get a closer look at your main battery and backup battery.

A couple more things:

- Ability to vary the main display size/position from each view.

- Ability to customize the date display. It defaults to "Thursday, August 14, 2003"
It would be nice to be able to customize that- 08/14/03, THURS 08/14, 08.14.03, etc.

- Abiltity to display time within a skin. I know it's common to use this in the menu bar with WISbar or something, but it would be another element to add to the customization of Dashboard if we had the option to put the time (and customize how it's displayed).

I know this may be a lot of requests, but I'm just building a wishlist...I think the program is great.
