Definitely well deserved!

These would be top of my list (in rough order of importance):

- The ability to select different fonts for display and print  (Nice to 
reduce the size of long printouts)

- Line numbers

- Some flexibility in defining headers / footers (File / path name, 
modification date / page number / total pages)

- A switch to right-justify soft-wrapped lines

- The ability to switch syntax highlighting on or off when printing, or 
perhaps the ability to select a different form of highlighting.  
(Highlighting can look pretty awful on paper - depending on the font.  
Printouts are often clearest with just the class / method / function 
declarations in bold - for easy reference).

- Some form of control over orphans / widows (agree with the comments 
from José and Justin)

Cheers  all,
