Mute groups would be good too. The 505 let you mute the drums as a 
whole or individually, the Rm1x can mute 1-8 and 9-16 separately. 
It's handy for being able to drop out all the drums, or just 
individual tracks.

I'd really like to see MIDI commands (short sysex is fine) to queue 
patterns, change mutes, do direct pattern access, maybe even XMIX. 
The sysex spec I've seen doesn't allow for much sequencer control.

That said, I may be calling Musician's Fiend later today...
