I've been involved in various discussions about this, and I know that there is no shortage of ideas (some are documented here [1], although I know there were many more). I think the question is which idea is most viable for the amount of money we have to spend, and who might be available for those types of contracts. >From a design point of view, there are two things that I would particularly like to see. 1. Infrastructure to allow applications to independently, and securely store passwords. Stef outlined a plan for this during his 2013 GUADEC presentation ([2], see from slide 37 onwards). It is something that is necessary for application sandboxing, and I believe would be more consistent with user expectations. 2. "Factory Reset" - an option to wipe a device of all files and settings, and return it to a blank state (or as blank as we can get it). Very useful for privacy.
