Ignore empty configuration files
I went to create a configuration file, selected the wrong menu item, somethingorother happened, and I ended up with an blank .sublime-settings file.
The next startup, ST2 displays an error ("Error trying to parse settings") then "crashes." It doesn't actually crash though, it stays running in the background, preventing any future instances from starting up, even if the offending empty file is removed.
I think it should just ignore the empty file, offer an option to delete it, etc.

When opening a new file from the command line, sublime should focus the window that already contains it.
Consider the command:
This does the right thing if the topmost Sublime window has file.txt open somewhere in it; file.txt becomes the focused tab. You do not get two copies of file.txt open. However, if there are two or more Sublime windows open, then sublime will open a second copy of file.txt in the frontmost window.
Desired behavior:
Sublime should raise the window that contains file.txt to the front, then focus the tab that contains it, rather than opening a new copy of the same file.
Desired behavior with -n:
$ sublime_text -n file.txt
If Sublime is invoked from the cli with the -n to open a file that is already open, then the -n flag should be ignored if file.txt is already open in a window that contains no other tabs (including folder views), and the existing window should come frontmost. If file.txt is open in a window with other tabs, then Sublime should act as if the user had grabbed the file.txt tab and pulled it off into a new window.
Workaround:
On Linux, if you typically open your files in separate Sublime windows, then wmctrl can be used to focus the right window. Use `sudo apt-get install wmctrl` to install wmctrl. I use the script below, saved as "se", to enforce the one-window-per-file rule. This script currently makes no attempt to solve the multiple-folder-view enhancement request (http://sublimetext.userecho.com/topic/88851-opening-a-folder-from-the-command-line-should-focus-on-the-existing-window-if-that-folder-is-already-open-in-sublime/).
#!/bin/bash
for f in "$@" ; do
# If the parameter is a directory, then open it in a new sublime window
if [ -d "$f" ] ; then
sublime_text -n "$f" &
else
# Test to see if the file is already open in Sublime; if it is, then
# bring the focused window frontmost instead of opening a new one.
d=$(cd "$(dirname "$f")" 2>/dev/null && pwd | sed -e "s|^$HOME|~|")
b=$(basename -- "$f")
if [ `wmctrl -l | grep -c "$d/$b"` != 0 ] ; then
wmctrl -a "$d/$b" &
else
sublime_text -n "$f" &

Sublime Text 2 should be able to recognize if a opened file was renamed in finder
Open a file in sublime text 2 and then rename the same file in finder. If you store the renamed file, a file with the same name is created.

Implement the "Type

Add Perl Symbols to Bundle Perl Package
I'd like to see perl symbols included in the default lib. I've posted my example symbols library in the forum: http://www.sublimetext.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1663

on_query_context not invoked for bindings "outside" of a view
I have a plugin which consists of some keybindings which can be conditionally toggled on or off, all of which have a 'context' requirement and an accompanying EventListener which checks the global flag to tell whether they should be enabled or not.
When executing an application command though, my keybindings only ever appear to be enabled when executing in the context of a view. For example: open a new window, go to "layout -> columns: 2", then select the (empty) second column and press a key that has different definitions in the default map and my plugin's map, and the default map will take over, without ever consulting my EventListener.
This is a minor nitpick, since I can always just hit the default keybinding for "new file" and then all of my other bindings take effect, but it would be great if this behaved consistently.
(This on build 2139.)

My specified tab_size gets overridden incorrectly
I'm editing Python code, and my Python settings have "tab_size": 4. Sublime Text doesn't always listen to this, and I think it has to do with the size of the first indentation in the file.
For example, if I have an import list wrapped onto multiple lines, with 20 spaces at the start of the next line to line up with "from module import (", it seems that Sublime Text takes this as an indication that I didn't really want 4-space indents, and it uses 8-space indents instead. Even though the rest of the file uses 4-space indents and now I can't get to half of the tab stops.
At least it doesn't use 20-space indents, but inappropriate 8-space indents are still frustrating.

This will be the indentation detection guessing wrong. You can disable indentation detection: http://www.sublimetext.com/docs/2/indentation.html

Minimap headlines
Hey Guys,
I know you are all aout making sublime the best to work with.
I have a suggestions for your next version:
Minimap Headlines!
If I write:
// /&/ Search Area &/&
or
<!--- /&/ Search Area &/& -->
and so on .. (normal comments with /&/ &/& (or something) inside them)
Result:
Browsers will read it as normal comments, Sublime will read it as comment headlines.
Meaning the 'minimap' Will be even more useful, showing overview with LARGE Headings, ease navigation and serve as a mild lock-in!
Hope you will conisder it. Feel free to mail if you have any questions, (I am in contact with your sales) and keep up the great work.
Best,
Kris

Please support eero.
See http://eerolanguage.org/, eero is essentially a much better wrapper for Objective-C. It would be really nice if Sublime would support editing in it's syntax. :)
