Currently if you wish to open a file in a program that doesn't display on the "Select an application to open" dialog (right-click a file > Open with > Other Application), you simply can't open that file in your program of choice from nautilus without editing the defaults.list.

Sometimes my friend and I get problems with our USB drives like damaged file system. It is hard for an user to check the file system (FAT32) for errors, fix them and format it.

Since Ubuntu have the past few months have some serios regressions with updates, (both short and LTS). Some of my nearest are non-techical ubuntu users have had no chance to recover without me having access to the machines. Its's not easy from distance, rather quite painfull and time-consuming.
I don't know if I even need to mention but, Sandy Bridge GPU freezes and sound cards not working are just few to name.
What if the OS could revert back to a known working state automatically if a non successfull boot is done and/or on users request on bootup more easily?

The default for the Russian localization of the interface installed 4 Russian layouts: Russian, Russian(Germany, phonetic), Russian(Georgia), Kazakh(with Russian). And there is no English! And as the command in a terminal type that?!
In addition, the vast majority of Russian-speaking users use the 2 layouts: Russian and English(US). Therefore I am sure, that these 2 layouts should be included by default for Russian localization.
And default keys combination to change layouts should be Shifth+Alt.
I just tried to share a photo from my desktop to Google+ so I had to go back to the browser and to upload it manually... Simple guess to follow a logic from mobile phones - clicking on a photo opens sharing options - depending on a social network you are signed in.

on my tiny netbook trackpad, as well as on my much larger, 17" macbookpro trackpad, i often run out of space on the trackpad when i am dragging and dropping something from one place to another. whether it's a file from one folder to another, or a sample in lmms, or trying to make a selection in a graphics program, etc.
The idea of ubuntu suggesting an update server is a great one: it helps the user find the best update server based on their location. But why not go a step further? Since pretty much everyone makes ubuntu select a new update server as one of the first things after installing, why not do this during installation?

The online accounts that you can enable on the sidebar like facebook, youtube, amazone, etc always open in a new window all though I have firefox already running. I would like to have the option to be able to open them in a new tab instead.
