Personally, I'd like to see improvements in startup time, but I'm less than hopeful.

Next version we want to have dconf instead of gconf (hackfest has been planned). It is much *much* faster than gconf for reading (dunno about writing). As that is very important part of startup time, that part will actually improve.
