The changes in the 1x1 cylinder brick are functional -- with the bottom
lip, the cylinder will fit between 4 studs, and with the hole-y stud,
you can put an antenna rod through the cylinder.

Another functional (but less important) varied piece: 4215, the 1x4x3
panel (ie, 'thin wall').  Sometimes, this piece has holes, tabs, and
dimples on the ends, so you can attach window panes like 3854 (hinged
half-window) and 3855 (glass full-window).  Other times, 4215 has no
holes, tabs, or dimples.

BTW, the holes, tabs, and dimples are set up so the window-pane is at a
90-degree angle to the panel.  I guess this would be useful on the back
of a LEGOLand truck, where you'd have two panels as the sides of the
truck, to provide opening doors.
