How about the big one... no plug-ins. :-)

Autoconf Blender now properly loads .ttf fonts in OS X. Thank you!

Under autoconf, still no international drawing support.

Beautiful job on fixing the flashing screen on face select & vertex 
paint modes!

Did find that the spherical UV mapping still has some odd behavior: a 
wrap will sometimes put faces in the middle of nowhere instead of 
contiguous where they belong. I can provide some screenshots if someone 
wants to work on it.

There is a nasty flash when clicking the "maximize" button, don't know 
if this is preventable or not.

Clicking on "Options" button when selecting a Quicktime Codex still 
brings up a blank window and essentially locks up Blender: it becomes 
unresponsive until you force quit it.

When in UV select mode, the cursor in the object window is a "rotate" 
arrow. Ton, I think maybe you were looking to make better use of the 
various system cursors available under OS X, but this particular one 
confused me. I thought I was suddenly dropped into Rotate mode because 
of how this cursor looked. Perhaps an open arrow instead?

Still have to click on the main Blender screen title bar after 
dismissing the render screen with "ESC." This isn't so much a bug as it 
is an unusual method of working with the program. Those that don't know 
the trick will think that Blender is broken or locked up.

Render time now displays properly. Thanks!

ESC key responsiveness during Render is also good.

Definite improvement, Ton. Thank you and all other coders working on 
projects that keep OS X parity up to snuff!!
