1. Auto-fill

There was once a plugin for OW that implemented this feature, but I don't know if the author is going to port it to OW 4.0.  It wouldn't be very hard to write at all, but it would have to be something that could be turned off because personally I hate auto compete.  Are you just refering to the URL field or all text fields like IE?  Who knows -- maybe I'll write one.

2. Password Manager (I have been told that OmniWeb will tie into Apple's
keychain in the future)

I'm not really sure about this one so I'll defer to Ken.

3. Full Java 2 support

This issue has been covered several times, but I'll cover it again by quoting OW's faq page(http://www.omnigroup.com/products/omniweb/faq/)

"Apple's Java integration is not complete in the public beta of Mac OS X, and it prevents OmniWeb from supporting Java applets. The support architecture exists in OmniWeb, and when Apple completes their Java integration we will add the ability to run Java applets."

4. Update to Apple's newest frameworks

OW has always been in sync with the most recent frameworks that Apple has to offer.

5. More informable staus bar (than the little green circles).

This has been mentioned before, but I think that it would be of great help to Omni if you could define exactly what you mean by "more informable."

Hope this helps.
