Since you have a lot more things to add to your list, you should delete the p-adic arithmetic item, since that already exists in pari. (I am not saying taht the capabilities are the same, but I have been using pari/gp for p-adic arithmetic for years).
You could also say that sparse LA over GF(p) has been implemented in my modular symbols code for many years too, but that is a different situation really.
