My vote goes to phase for the mouse wheel :) It's small, but it's the
feature I definitely get the most use out of, and is very practical. Another
reason is more personal - not necessarily a direct contribution to the code,
but I consider it important. In the work up till 2.27, phase was very
helpful and encouraging with me, and spent his own time helping me learn,
where many others' attitudes seemed to be 'do it yourself'. If it weren't
for him, I may not have ever tried to learn and contribute anything of my
own.
