My Drupal prediction for 2006

Drupal becomes the "Google" of Content Management Systems. A few large, well known companies in addition to thousands of smaller companies adopt Drupal.
Drupal becomes more of a major player in the Distance Educational arena.

Content fixed between others in home page (es. banner)

How do i put a certain code, for example between the second and third content in home page (?q=node)?. Something like this
I would put there a banner, but i don't know how modify the template. I'm using PHPtemplate.

Thanks.

drupaldocs.org only shows HEAD?

Why do:

http://drupaldocs.org/api/head/function/filter_xss_bad_protocol

and

http://drupaldocs.org/api/4.6/function/filter_xss_bad_protocol

return the same lines of code even though my actual Drupal install (4.6.5) has different code altogether for this function?

Access Control revisions / rollback

Administering several sites with various extra modules, plus all the testing it takes to check new things, I would like a simple way to transfer ACL (Access Control List) settings related to "some selected modules" between sites.

Also, it would be practicaly to be able to track changes in ACL by user, and to rollback if either mis-set, or - actually as referred in this post: http://drupal.org/node/41134, to recover if a save error occurs mid-way through an ACL update, resulting in a half-empty ACL.

Spell checking database entries

Hi,

I'm in the process of writing a "film production" database module for drupal. It will have tables (nodes) like "Projects", "Cast and Crew" etc. Obviously, I'd like to connect the "Projects" table to the "Cast and Crew" table with a many-to-many relationship. But my question is this: how can I "spell check" names to see if they already fit in the database.

Some things I'd like the search system to do:

Customize look for each module?

How to i customize the way a module diplays content? I did not find template files in modules so i could modify the apearance, its not the template that i want to change but the way things appear. For example in the user acount display page i want to have text displayed next to is title headers

e.g
Full name:
Paris Paraskevas

to display as
Full name: Paris Paraskevas
