NILFS(preferably backported from the latest versions, same for ext4), linux-vserver, initramfs(built into the kernel - wait 3-4 seconds before continuing boot), put a good keymap for the n900 into the kernel keymap(add things like | and such on certain keys, enable access to Fn KEYS.

I'm not sure vservers are really a good idea. First, are you sure the patch integrates well with the linux-omap-nokia kernel? Does it work fine on arm boxes?
And, is there really a point for a community/generic kernel to have that kind of thing? I don't deny the fact that it might be interesting to play with cages in the n900, but I'm not sure everybody needs it. And, maybe linux containers might be a better idea. They don't exactly overlap, but at least lxc are mainline so it might be easier.

It is just a glorified chroot so should work but of course it have certain specific bits and pieces. But one that has process separation etc.
Though wouldn't mind getting a more recent kernel like .32 on the device.
What I'd like to see is:
a) Have a minimal core distro running by default
b) Have a easy to use select menu to pick a vserver to start
c) start the vserver for example maemo5 - > get to it's GUI etc.
d) be able to clone the m5 vserver before doing an upgrade so in case of badness can easy to switch back to the old one
