I am quite looking forward to Wordpress 2.4, not because of any features but because of the promised redesigned admin interface.
I haven’t heard much more about it than that, so perhaps my enthusiasm is misplaced but I think it is about time for a core redesign of the admin section.
I am hoping for a simplification of the underlying HTML; I would love to see a minimalist (html wise) approach, using simple label-control pairs instead of multiple nested divs, fieldsets and legends, but that may be too much of a change given the number of plugins out there that may rely on the existing CSS.
I expect it will be a decorative change only, but I can hope.
Update It looks like we’ll have to wait a little longer for the admin update. 2.4 will be skipped, and 2.5 will be released around March 08.

2.4 Skipped

I think you have a point Christoph, code highlighting in plugin / theme editors could be very useful.
It is one of the things that puts me off them at the moment.

I can only hope they include CodePress natively (http://codepress.org/) into the Adminpanel. See my Idea on WordPress (http://wordpress.org/extend/ideas/topic.php?id=928&replies=1)
It would simplify small changes in plugin- or themecode so much, but currently breaks the complete adminpanel.
