Fixing those things, primarily the first three, strikes me as very high priority. It would allow us to define nice trait hierarchies similar to the ones found in Haskell/Clojure (Eq, Ord, Hash, etc) which form the foundation of a strong library design.
### Better treatment of extern fns (nmatsakis)
This would eliminate the last use of modes, and obviously it's a common area that people interact with.

### Miscellaneous regions bugs (nmatsakis)
There are various bugs in the region type system implementation. I will go through and collect some issue numbers later. They ought to be fixed.
### Condition-handler system (graydon)
It's difficult to write libraries presently that have "recoverable" failure modes. We've long talked about a pattern for this using TLS. We gained TLS in 0.4. We should give this a try in 0.5, it'll help a lot in writing reasonable libraries.
