One of the first things that I noticed on 0.9 was the lack of the tilde (~)
when you pressed SHIFT-<ESC>. This is a terrible inconvenience that I hope
that NeXT will remedy in 1.0 (I hope they put it back as SHIFT-<ESC>).

The second thing I noticed was the resize 'bar'. I really don't like this 
implementation and hope they bring back the resize button in the window title
bar. That is much more convenient (although it has an inherint problem*).
It really annoys me when I try to resize a window and it locks into growing
horizontally because I my initial movements were mostly horizontal.

*The problem with the resize button that I saw was the fact that you could
push the top of the window off of the screen and you wouldn't be able to
click in the resize box again to fix it.
