Nothing concrete, but here's a few ideas:
- Import/Export via component resources
- Authorization
- See about getting Jackrabbit's repository browser up and running
- Content model definition
- POC some common OFBiz content usage, e.g. Product Content, Static Site 
Content, Help Content, others?
- Better deployment model support
- Session management
- Transaction Management

I'm sure there are a million other things that I can't think of right now.

Regards
Scott
