I just started part 30384, the Naboo Fighter Canopy.  I have a couple of
questions:

1) There is a little divvet on the nose of the canopy.  This seems to be
a molding artifact, but it looks like it is a regular and prominent
one.   Should this be included in the part?

Looking at the divot, I'd say it's not crucial.  It would be a nice piece
of work to put it in, but a real PITA to do.

2) There are molding lines at the edges between the vertical surfaces
and the curved surface, as well as between the differently sloped
sections of the curved surface.  Should these lines be modeled?  If so,
in what color?  Or shuld they be Optional Lines?

You don't need to model molding lines, but there should be optional lines
whereever the surface bends.  The cylinder primitives will supply optional
lines along their straight edges, but you'll need to add optional lines for
the circular curves running across the part.

3) I'm tenatively calling this part "Canopy, Round 4 x 7 x 2"  Any
better suggestions?

Use the Windscreen category:

Windscreen  4 x  7 x  2 Rounded
