Two, randomly unrelated, things.
First, I would absolutely love support to be added for SMAA: http://www.iryoku.com/smaa/
What is it? It’s like FXAA, but faster and better looking. FXAA doesn’t so much do anti-aliasing as it takes a blurry dump on the graphics and some of the edges happened to get smoothed out in the process. SMAA does a much better job of zeroing in on the aliasing without all the blurring of details you don’t want blurred.

I run it in Skyrim and it’s fantastic. That works in GuildWars 2, although I worry about being caught by some kind of anti-cheating/hacking detection system. I was told during BWE3 by a forum mod that action was “unlikely” to be taken against my account if that happened since this doesn’t automate game play or give any advantages, but I’d feel better with official support.
I’d even pay to unlock the option to select it, if that would be necessary to add it. I like it just that much.
Secondly… we need Charrkitty as a minipet. What’s a Charrkitty? It’s a comic character created, it would seem, due to the pre-release wait angst for GuildWars 2. I love the character and would really like to have this in the game as a minipet. Here’s the blog where the comics are posted: http://mysticalbeefsteak.blogspot.co.uk/
Potential NSFW language in one of the early posts on the blog.
So, yeah, Charrkitty minipet. I need it, you need it, and really, I think the world needs it.
Edit 1: Here’s a comparison I did with the SMAA Injector in Skyrim.

You MUST view these at full size to get the full effect. What you’re looking for is the aliasing around the wooden lamp post to the left of the compass. Notice that SMAA does a much better job at removing it without the negative impact the wood grain texture that FXAA has. Also notice the difference of the leaves on the bushes. FXAA butchers them while SMAA has little effect. One more noticable bit is the road texture, that FXAA blurs noticeably.
