elements folks would want as a sort of bulk service pack.  Lets rank our
top ten, and assume for argument's sake that the elements would cost
$.25 (.$50 for window frame AND glass), and that a pack would contain
100 of the *same* element, same color.  Colors can be new for a
particular element.  What would you choose? (Use ldraw numbers for
obscure pieces)

Here are mine:

1. black 3x4 low slope
2. dark gray 3x4 low slope
3. 1x2x2 clear wall panel
4. 1x2x2 blue-tint wall panel
5. black 1x4x1.3 half round with side plate (6081)
6. 1x2 white corrugated brick
7. 1x4x3 white train window
8. 1x2 black tile
9. 1x2x3 white train window
10.  black 2x4 super low slope
