Hullo,
here are some ideas ( I'll write something more about those you'll find any
worth implementing):
1)Tagging archived/read only files ( create DB containing tags for files
that for-whatever reason cannot be modified, use tags from DB rather then
from file, sync DB and file tags
2) Cleaning collection - look for duplicate artist ( "MYCHILDREN MYBRIDE",
"My children my bride" and "mychildren mybride" are probably one artist, so
let's merge them ( check musicbrainz or something which name is correct?)),
tracks ( removing duplicate tracks), albums (merge).
3) Subcollections - let users create as many subcollections as they wish,
each containg whatever they wish and chose which subcollections should be
active ( displayed in collection browser etc.)(don't display tracks that are
in many collections multiple times). To make looking for tracks easier (eg.
http://xkcd.com/400/ - just create subcollections "stupid" and
"not-so-stupid" and shuffle all "not-so-stupid").

I'm using Amarok 1.4 and didn't notice any of those features ( and missed
them), but I don't have any experience with Amarok 2 yet ( probably I'll
have some in 8 hours), I find meself quite good C++ programmer, but I don't
have much experience with Qt (I don't think it's a problem though - I
believe my ideas will not need any sophisticated Qt knowledge). I can write
to you in polish if you prefer.

Cheers,
