As a Suse user for a while, I certainly do agree.

From a users point of view, I'll suggest and request a couple of new
software patterns for 10.3 with the possibly required optimizing and setup:
1) Multimedia (Desktop functions)
2) Media Center (Server functions)
Reasons:
To setup working environments for Audio and Video editing, DVD authoring
or Media Center in Linux are not assumed to be trivial user tasks. For
comparision, the "Ubuntu Studio" was just released a couple of days ago.
As far as I've seen from user discussions about it, Ubuntu Studio
contains these extra packages and a optimized kernel for "low latency"
recording og midi and supports Jack audio:
Audio:
Ardour2, Jack
Graphic:
Blender, Gimp, Inkscape, Hugin, Scribus
Video:
Cinepaint, Kino, PiTiVi
Jokosher, Gnonlin library
openSUSE 10.2:
All of the above packages are already available either for openSUSE 10.2
directly or from
Hugin
http://repos.opensuse.org/multimedia:/photo/openSUSE_10.2/
Cinepaint
http://software.opensuse.org/download/home:/bekun/openSUSE_10.2/
several from
http://packman.unixheads.com/suse/10.2/
1) Multimedia
In addition to the above A/V solutions, I'll suggest to add:
Video:
+ Cinelerra (HDV editing, packman)
+ DVD/HDVD/BD Autoring tools (from list *)
+ DVD/HDVD/BD Burning tools (from list *)
*) This is a comprehensiv list to select from

2) Media Center
LinuxMCE
LinuxMCE is often called a platform for developing smart home modules
constructed by a variety of open source projects. The integration of
these open source projects, such as Xine, Mythtv, and Asterisk, can be
found in the LinuxMCE Software Documentation.

Maybe more or other packages?
