I have one more suggestion: the facility to create recursive PCBs.
Recursive PCBs could work the same way as the footprint
re-use: a node could contain a reference to a parent node;
the parent node could be a single element or itself a
reference to a collection of elements.

I can think of a "group" of {traces, vias, elements, silk text or lines} to
be linked in from an external file or to be embedded.
The analogy of embedded/unembedded symbols in gschem comes to mind.
Me too.
And what if the gschem, pcb file formats were somehow unified. Might allow
easier searching through project data. Might enable cell-based design like
larger circuits, (chips), are done...
