How could Google of all company's release Android and forget about proxy support?!
This is a common complaint and something that should have been taken care of a long time ago. I would add GPU acceleration across the UI to the list of no-brainers.

It seems that Google is spreading itself somewhat thin with development -- though this could be misguided intuition as they are apparently on a hiring frenzy. Either way, their strategy seems to be paying off as Android numbers skyrocket.
