Wordpress 2.6 New Under The Hood Features

EDIT: Looks like Wordpress 2.6 Beta 1 has been released today. Been playing with Wordpress 2.6 alpha for a bit with the new features. To the users it will appear like nothing really has changed on the surface but under the hood there are a bunch of new features. My favorite new feature is the post revisions. I can't tell you how many times I have had the same post open in multiple windows and accidentally over written a previous post. The only thing worse then doing a job is doing the same job over... Here is a screen shot : Image Credit Here is a full run down of the features with links to sites for more information about a specific feature:
