I see Multi-Language support is on your list. I am not sure what level of support will you make, I would like add some suggestion to it.

1. support unicode file name in local files.
2. have different native encoding setting for each site (better if we can select the font too)

By supporting unicode in local files, you may need doing unicode <-> native encoidng conversion on file name. This is why you need to set native encoding on ftp site.

Who will need this ?? Take me as an example,

I am a native Chinese speacker. Currently there are two very different encoding for Chinese, Traditional Chinese (BIG5) and Simplified Chinese (GB).

Since I work on main China & Taiwan, I need both. It give me an headache everytime I visit office site in China & Taiwan, I need to set different font for each site.

Also the downloaded file may have a meaningless name since the target site use different encoding than the local computer. This two problem must be solved if you want true multi-language support.
