I think (or rather feel) that Sublime Text's representation (and operation) of selecting text is a bit weird, compared to most other editors if not all of them.

For example, comparing Sublime Text to (oh, pick anyone) TextMate:

Holding Shift and pressing Down will place the cursor on the next line in ST2, compared to TextMate which does (what I'm used to) in fact highlight the current line leaving out the cursor.

This is my main barrier to entry (slight exaggeration since I love everything else in ST). Thus, I'm curious to know why it works like this and if text selection can be altered to (what I consider) normal behavior.

It would be great if sublime could allow checking difference between two versions of same file.

When using the FInd In Files feature.  It would be great if there was a history of past searches and directories that were searched in.  Currently you have to retype if you happen to search in the same directories a lot and there isn't a history of past terms you searched for.

Remember the history of edits for closed files and make us be able to go back when we reopen it.

I would really like to have all workspaces to be accessible in one window with maybe some tabs in the bottom right hand corner. This would be great for when working on multiple parts in a project, or other smaller short lived projects.

If would be great if I could make a plugin show an overlay, with whatever I want in it. Even better if I could move it around based on whether it is obscuring text or not.

Could be used for help, autocomplete help/suggest. Coding suggestions and context sensitive cheat sheets.
