How about Olaf Dietsche's filesystem capabilities support? It has been posted a couple times to LK, yesterday even.
We've had capabilities for ages (2.2?) but no filesystem support.
OpenBSD is recently bragging about no longer having any SUID root binaries on the system.
With FS capabilities we (Linux) can have the same situation. Security is a hot topic, and anything the kernel can do make security better/easier seems worthy of consideration.
