It would also be great, to add a graphical interface to plugins.
A personal favorite would be, to use Nicolas' drawer for the
project.vim plugin, which I use a lot.
Not sure if that would add alot of overhead/make source diverge from
the default vim sources, but hey, just a thought.

While I do agree that it would be unfortunate to diverge from standard
Vim, this would be really good to have. I don't have the list in my
head, but this shouldn't be too far from some item in the wishlist for
future Vim.
Just for completeness, how about something like:
:browsepanel <path>
Which would open "something" from which one could select files. A
"select" (double-click) would call ":e <path>" if path is a file, else
expand tree (use ":browsepanel <otherpath>" for switching dir).
Finally, ":browsepanel" w/o arg would close/toggle it.
Just off the top of my head, since I really like the idea.. (Though
this may lead to the slippery slope of IDE-like complexities I guess.
And then there will be the "how to work netrw into this". Still, we've
had ":browse" for years now..)
Best regards,
Niklas
