Interesting article by Mike Williams.

he basically outlines some things he would like to see changed in Windows 8.

Windows Explorer needs major attention, too. At a minimum, let’s fix the basics: we really shouldn’t still be wondering why the program forgets our folder settings at random moments, say (or dumping the option entirely as appears to be the case with Windows 7).

and

With that all sorted, I’d aim to produce a more configurable Control Panel where it’s easy to display just the applets that you commonly use; simplify network troubleshooting; add encryption to Windows 8 Home Premium because regular users need security, too; and discover why Windows is slow at copying, and then fix the problem.
