Most of your points remind me of my own first steps in gschem/pcb. It 
would be nice to newbies, if they could be rectified in some way


 The BOM that PCB generates is far nicer than the BOM that gschem
 generates. The PCB BOM has one type of item per line with all the
 corresponding refdes', while gschem creates a line per refdes. Having a
 PCB style BOM generator in gschem would be useful (unless I'm missing
 something?)

Different styles of BOM backends are available. Some of them assemble the 
similar components in one line, some don't.
