Daemon/UI separation request.
I've seem a few programs out there now that split the operation into a daemon and a ui so that the daemon can keep running behind the scenes when the ui is shut down, and could even be run when the user isn't logged in via cron. I think this would be a useful feature for Transmission, the GUI could be shut down while the core, still seeding and downloading, could run as a per-user daemon. IPC, such as unix sockets, could be used for communication between the daemon and the ui..

You can already do this with transmission daemon + the webUI or one of the RPC client front ends...
