I haven't had time to blink in the general direction of Windows 7. But the few things I've read about (or glanced at) seem to indicate it will be cool.

Lots of attention seems to be focused on the new 'superbar' too.

And I'm fine with the notion of a super-bar. But there are some things I really want from that Super-Bar and from Windows 7 if I'm going to get all giddy about it.

1) Native support for Multiple Monitors. You know what that means. (Sadly it means bye-bye to Ultra Mon, but MS should just buy those guys-out anyhow.)

2) I want transparent task bars - even if i'm a super-bad-man (TM) and maximize one of my apps.

3) I really want to be able to middle-click on an app in one of my taskbars (i.e. per monitor) to close the app. And I don't care if FireFox did invent middle-clicking. It's insanely convenient, and I'd love to be able to close my apps that way.

Anyone that's played with Windows 7, let me know if any of the stuff above is already in place!
