It would be useful to be able to take a list (tasks, projects, etc.) and rank them through the process of making one-to-one ranking decisions. The end result is a ranked list. This can be useful when you have a number of non-dependent tasks within a project, or unrelated tasks that have the same priority.
This feature would be unique to OmniFocus. The only "organizer" that I know of which has had it is the old DOS brainstorming program MaxThink. However, you can see a modern implementation for the Mac, List-Queue, at http://mindfulsystems.com/.
This is probably not a version 1.0 feature, but I'd like to second the request to be able to automatically adjust priorities as LifeBalance does. Even if you don't implement the "balance" model, it would be nice to have the priority of a task rise as its due date gets closer.
It would also be nice to be able to assign an "expiration date" to tasks, so that the ones you never complete (presumably because they don't really matter) could either be deleted or archived to a "someday" folder.
Or, as someone else suggested, task priorities might be adjusted within a context based on project priorities. For example, if you have two phone calls to make (the "phone calls" context), OmniFocus would list first the one which supports the higher priority project.
Thanks for being willing to listen to all these requests, given that OmniFocus isn't even done yet!
