A quick, hacked together mock of Photoshop's layers palette, with searching added. I've created a list of small things I'd like to see in Photoshop CS6. I'm hoping that Adobe will read the list and consider adding some.
Wishful thinking? Is there anything small you'd like fixed, tweaked or added to Photoshop? I'll email the list to John Nack soon.

Searching could be good, but I'm generally so anal with my naming/grouping that i can drill down easily. The overall UI misfits in the Adobe suite shit me to tears. Seriously. One look at Adobe UI Gripes tumblr says it all.
Definitely a +1 for everything you've mentioned in your post. Rounded corners would work quite well if they were applied like smart filters to smart objects — being able to pop-up the little dialogue box and adjust the border radius without having to redraw would be a godsend. Have to say though, smart objects irritate the hell out of me. I wish you could edit them inline. Most of the time I only use them so I apply styles and filters non-destructively.
Great post, Marc.

@Thomas Cheers. Suggestions for other things welcome :)
@Jesse I love reading Adobe UI Gripes and Dear Adobe, but wanted to focus on the functionality, rather than UI execution. I agree with most of the comments posted on both sites though. Worth noting: I replaced Adobe's UI with some native Mac OS X elements in the mock :P
I also find vector shapes more of a pain to work with, but I think they're becoming essential when building iOS app designs. It won't be long before we all have to @2x our iPad apps too.

It would be nice to have a search, since sometimes I work with PSD's that other artists created, and they could just tell me the layer name rather than saying "it's sorta in the middle"...
I would also like a way to organize my custom brushes and textures fills better :\ Unless someone has a good suggestion for that right now?

Search is needed. Looking really good, though i think the actual list of layers needs some contrast from its toolbar.

@Craig Totally. This wasn't supposed to be an exercise in design. The mock was just to show where it might go and while I was in there I couldn't help myself :)

Oh don't get me started on the Photoshop interface ...
I like the search feature!

Thanks. Great response from Adobe, who said they were planning CS6 right now, so the timing was good.

@Benjamin Brown We got 7 out of the 14 on that list (default angle omitted as it was possible in CS5). Not too bad :) Will have to push for more of them in CS7.
