A small list of what came to my mind :

• search à la safari (with nice yellow bumps instead of invisible grey highlights)

• sidebar instead of drawer (more practical to me)

• adblocking : maybe use adblock plus listing?

• also, adapted regexp without tiedous escapes for dots (\.) and a more easy way for non-nerds (see Safari AdBlock plugin > custom filters)

• more flexibility in the workspaces window (reorder spaces, reorder tab items and drag in an other space)

• more relevent results with "live" search in the adress bar (if I type "last" I want "last.fm" in first not "last.fm/index.php?artist=the_beatles&song=helter_skelter")

• make non standard forms (most that don't have a true submit button) compatible with the keychain (if it's technically feasible)

• loading progress in tabs (see netnewswire)
 
search à la safari (with nice yellow bumps instead of invisible grey highlights)

…this is the one and only thing I REALLY, REALLY miss from Safari. Also, the ability, like Safari, to search without a dialog box popping up...

... allowing of course for the idea that for both of these items, some of us will express a strong preference for the existing behaviour, rather than the Firefox/Safari behaviour proposed.

I will concede that that OmniWeb's search result highlighting can be very difficult to see sometimes.
 
The Highlighter bookmarklet will get you something visible, but not as functional

These are all excellent suggestions IMHO
