Lots of good ideas already!

I'd like to see a "Roaring 20's" town theme:
Steam locomotive train set (both passenger and freight)
"Model A" style vehicles
Corner Drugstore with soda fountain
Gas station w/ 1920's style gas pumps
Victorian-style house
Town square with park benches, central fountain, push-carts selling stuff
I'd also like to see better track geometry, especially switches. And maybe a
~30° crossover.
The farm theme idea proposed elsewhere in this thread is also an excellent idea.
I've been wanting that one since I was a kid!

Anything that doesn't involve the basic brick

Bonktron. :-)

I too would like to see bulk backs of light grey tiles.

I too miss the alternate models on the boxes, and the in-box catalogs.
