Develop/roadmap

I am planning to apply to OLPC for a job as a contractor, working on Develop. I have been told that my first-priority feature, automatic code localization, would be hard to justify on the OLPC roadmap. So I'd like to hear some votes/priorities on the following "dream" features, listed roughly from easiest to hardest (+/- two slots):

• auto-pylint
• doctools
• (added) class browser
• peekaboo-like (figleaf with xmacro - throw autogenerated events at an activity, watch coverage, and log stack traces of errors. When I worked at Palm/3com/Palmsource, they called it "gremlins".)
• autocompletion
• move towards collaboration, starting with support for merges and changelogs (new-version notification and real-time collaboration would both come later than this)

• automatic code localization (program in Python with Spanish/Chinese/whatever keywords, but it is real python on-disk)
• debugger
• Gui designer (a la glade)
• C, via gcc and/or tcc

• Support for hosting the project on various popular sites like dev.laptop.org and SourceForge (easy interface to svn/git/cvs, etc.)

• other (bug tracking? etc.)

Add :~~~~ underneath an option to vote for it, and include any short reason/explanation you care to.

(for those unfamiliar with Develop currently, it has source coloring, good find-replace, log viewing, rudimentary version control through the journal. Currently I am working on updating the bundle format, this will make Develop more useful for existing activities, and make sugar smarter about updates; for instance you will be able to have a dev version and a stable version coexist on a given XO. This current work would be done before I would even begin with anything from the above list.)
