From what I've read (can't remember where). The separate components: Firefox, Sunbird, and Thunderbird are the future.
Mozilla will continue to be developed for awhile. Maybe even a long while. As for making it modular, that probably won't happen and innovations will probably end up in Firefox before they reach Mozilla. The development of Mozilla will just end up being slower IMHO.
As for features/wishes:
1) Well there was one I asked for in Mozilla before it reached 1.0. A context menu item that would create a url shortcut on the desktop to the page you were on. I do actually run my browser full screen, and having to make it a window and drag a shortcut to the desktop is a bit of a pain.
2) Also, I second that suggestion about blocking various media from certain sites, especially Macromedia Flash. The advertisers have been using Flash to overcome the ad-blocking features of browsers. Time to fight back!
3) Like some of you have already said - having more open standards that everyone can abide by. If the last wish actually takes off, we could get away with never having to use IE again.
