Wish List Updates for Snow Leopard

Question

If you support any of the following, please send them to Apple's suggestion box.
I would like Apple to offer the following settings, preferably without third party fixes.  HOWEVER, feel free to respond with your favorite work-around solutions.  I need to learn Terminal!
1. Safari - close download window upon completion
2. Safari - remove ALL cookies and cached items when "resetting" same.  There are always a select few that have to be manually deleted
3. Safari - have a built in video downloader/converter - Yes there are good third party solutions for this
4. Safari - allow Private Viewing as a default option
1.Pointer options - Create an option in preferences to enable the pointer to automatically go the default option selection (as is possible in that "other" operating system.  You know, the one that pirated the window concept)
1. Apple mail - #1 request is identify a way to allow the numerous superior email clients interface as seamlessly with other native apps.
2. Apple mail - short of that, create a setting to turn off or allow a time setting to override an email automatically being marked as read if it happens to be highlighted with you open the app, thereby appearing in the preview pane. Appearing in the preview pane does not mean I have read it.
3. Apple mail - provide an option for creating return receipts requests
4. Apple mail - What it that box that appears around blocks of text in received mail that makes editing more difficult than it should be
5. Apple mail - Provide a tool to apply the formatting to other parts of the email (sort of like the paint brush tool in that OS with the "W" word)
6. Apple mail - If I label a sender as "not-junk" do not put label mail from this sender as Junk.  I do not want all senders in my address book.
7. Apple mail - If I label a sender as "JUNK" future mail from this sender should also be JUNK, no?
8. Apple mail - Create a rule that allows "Bounce" as an option
1. iPhoto - I know I must be missing something here, so please chime in -
How or what can I do to save photos into iPhoto when I am not using iPhoto.  The most common annoyance for me is saving photos off email attachment or from the web.  There MUST be something I am doing wrong.  Where is the "Save to iPhoto Library" option?
1. QuickTime - Please bring back QT Player 7!!!
12. I know we mustn’t use "other" browsers, but in those rare events that it happens - how nice would it be to have a native bookmark sync option or common folder?
13. Finder - allow more columns in the viewing options for Spotlight
Please feel free to add to the list.

So may words, so little help.  You do realize that they call this a Support Community, right?
1. Safari - close download window upon completion
Mine already does this, and I'm sure you can do it in Snow Leopard, too.
     When you refer to "mine," what OS are you referring to?  Are you willing to share your knowledge on where I might find this capability?
3. Safari - have a built in video downloader/converter - Yes there are good third party solutions for this
That's not the job of a browser, and it's not going to happen. Keep dreaming.
     Thanks again for the helpful advice. I am impressed with our willingness to help.
4. Safari - allow Private Viewing as a default option
You can turn it on yourself. There's also AppleScript, or assigning a keyboard shortcut.
     I am very aware of how to turn it on.  I would prefer to leave it on by default.  Care to share your AppleScript knowledge?
Apple mail - provide an option for creating return receipts requests
It's been there for years—where have you been?
     Thanks again for the poweruser tip, very helpful.
1. Apple mail - #1 request is identify a way to allow the numerous superior email clients interface as seamlessly with other native apps.
That's entirely your opinion, which isn't shared by the vast majority of Mac users.
     I am sorry I do not share you opinion, nor did I know you speak for the majority of Mac users.  Perhaps with your superior guidance I would become a power user too?
Where is the "Save to iPhoto Library" option?
Have you tried looking at the options given to you when you receive email with attachments? There's a Save button in the Header section that gives you the option to save the image to iPhoto.
     And how does this sugggestion help when downloading a photo from the web?
Perhaps if you spent time getting to know your Mac and OS X, you'd find that there aren't nearly as many "issues" as you seem to imagine.
     Yes, and I perhaps if you would share a bit of your superior knowledge I would agree.  That was my hope in posting to a "support community."  You put a fair amount of effort into your criticism.  Just "imagnie..."
