As someone who tends to watch 2 hour renders, there are a few purely
cosmetic changes I'd love to see:

a) Pixel by pixel updating. Currently, the screen only updates when a
line is complete. You can see progress within the line by clicking on a
scroll bar button, but after 45 minutes, my arm gets tired.. :)

b) Full screen rendering. If I'm rendering a 1024x768 image in 1024x768
screen resolution, I still can't see the full image. If I maximize, the
image is scaled a bit to make up for the title bar above, and the task
bar below. If the image is larger than the screen, it would be nice to
view it full screen, scaled to maintain aspect ratio, rather than the
stretching and squeezing of when you maximize the window.

These are both Windows-specific...povray.windows is probably a more 
appropriate group.

You forgot to ask for one more thing. I wish that when rendering animations,
you could see it draw over the previous frame of the anim, instead of
clearing it out. If you render small enough, you could almost get a
real-time anim going there. Don't you think?
