What do you expect from the Jaguar preview?

So while we're wishing for stuff for the future here, I'm curious to know what people think will be demoed next Monday at WWDC during Jobs' keynote.

Some things, like spring loaded folders, have kind of leaked out, and clearly hardware support like BlueTooth will be rolled in, but other things?

Examples: UI overhauls, performance improvements, maybe 64-bit addressing support.

What do you think will be there? And, just as much, what won't be there?

pop-up folders? Seems a logical extension from spring-loaded folders...

Oh, I guess things like labels and so forth could be part of it, if there's even anything to report.

How about better compatibility with Windows networking.

More speed--always welcomed.

An unlined theme or two.

A slough of drivers to run things like Umax scanners and other unsupported 3rd party peripherals.

Oops, I'm into wishes, not probablilities.
