I'm looking forward to trying out Unity and seeing how that handles, so it's hard to make any constructive comments based on the current UI knowing what's coming in 11.04. That said...
As a laptop user, it has always felt like suspend and resume could be a bit quicker. You've spent a lot of effort getting boot time down - how about spending some optimisation effort on resume.
While I think about suspend/resume, it really bugs me that I have to authenticate to the screensaver before I can suspend my laptop. I'd like a configuration option to allow Fn-F4 to suspend even if the system has the screen lock running.
I understand that much of the tool chain is in place to just 'do the right thing' when installing on an SSD (partition alignment, trim support in kernel). To make users aware, though, the installer should really call out that it is optimising the installation for SSD so the user knows it has been identified correctly. It would be useful if the installer could also recognise SSDs during upgrades and give some advice on what's not configured optimally too.
When I plug a USB memory stick in a short time after I removed it, reopen the nautilus windows that I had open last time. This would help in the situation where you're moving things back and forward between two machines.
