Suggestions:
1. Ad ability to toggle on/off search bar, buddy list tabs, bottom aol service tabs, and grouping drop down menu.
So the ability to control and edit the UI is something "College" Justin has started to write about on his blog. I think there will be some more flexibility in the future to add and remove certain items, but not all items. For example, I think we may want to keep an AOL Radio tab there and always have it there, but maybe we would allow how it appears.
2. Redo look of notification toasters. They look very unfinished.
Since we are in a beta period not all of the UI is final, and there will be changes as the beta period goes along.
3. Any hope of less processes running? At least don't. by default, make them run at startup.

When starting triton, I see 2 process, one for the triton client itself, and one for the out of proc IM engine...now if I start AOL Radio or other services then more processes are created. When exiting triton all the processes should be nuked properly so the count should go to zero, if this is not happening let me know. So the process count while > 1, should not be like it was in the first beta where the count could grow to > 10 after a few times of running triton.
The entire process debate has been covered before at length, but in general the service model that we have can cause us to spawn multiple process depending upon what is run in-proc vs. out-of-proc.
