I'm using Mauku now, but it's behavior is getting me nuts because it keeps opening new windows when I just want to scroll, so I thought in making a twitter app myself.
Being a Gravity user for some time, here is a non-complete list of features:
  • multiple accounts
  • Tabs for replies, DM, friends and subscriptions
  • Search
  • freely configurable audible signals for any events
  • freely configurable refresh times for any events

Especially the reply tabs would make an Identi.ca client very useful.

For Identi.ca, I'd also love to see support for the !group feature. Like dynamic tabs for mentioned groups in your followers tweets, plus static tabs for the groups you are subscribed to.
E.g. you are subscribed to !n900 and !linux, you would have a static tab for each group. Now you receive a tweet from someone (follower, subscribed group) which mentions another group !maemo, the client should dynamically open a tab for this group and keep it for a configurable period of time. The tab should also stay, if another tweet mentions it.

Ehm, hope I was not too confusing with that idea.
