[My long list of items on my "wish list for UNIX"]
[Reply indicating OS-9 has all these features]

Wonderful!  Now, if we could just figure out how to get it on
VAXEN and 6/32's :-)

Seriously, anyone considering even a UNIX port, should look had the
principles and ideas behind OS-9 68K.  It is to UNIX, what MS-DOS 2.0
was to CP/M 2.2.

AT&T and BSD could both benefit from at least employing the "concepts"
of OS-9.

Failing this, we can hope that Micro-ware broadens it's offerings to
other processors.
