Most wanted addons for Vanilla 2

Post here your wanted addons for Vanilla 2.
Dear Santa,
I would like to download an addon that would allow any visitor to post just like I do in any WordPress blog, a kind of auto register/login when commenting. Let me illustrate:
-> User arrives from a Google Search Engine Page to a discussion page
-> User reads the discussion and has something to say
-> Instead of "where the hell is the register button?" he'll see a form beneath the discussion with 3 fields: name, email & message
-> After writing his message, and when pressing send, Vanilla would register him as a user, logging him automatically just like WordPress does
-> Whenever he visited the site again, he would be remembered by Vanilla: "How are you today? Do you want to recall what you did last summer?"
Dear Santa, I have behaved well, done my homework and didn't curse the whole year. I hope you can grant my wish.
Thanks.

Right now, I couldn't even use google- or doodle-polls because iframes don't work.
@basb That's a good idea. I've added it to my list of plugins I'll try to work on when I have spare time.
@fmimoso That's a cool feature, but there are some concerns. We'll have to think about a smart way of doing something like that. What would happen if the user tried to post with the same email, from a different computer? What about if his cookies got deleted?

a way to keep admin activity out of the activity section without deleting it
-> User arrives from a Google Search Engine Page to a discussion page
-> User reads the discussion and has something to say
-> Instead of "where the hell is the register button?" he'll see a form beneath the discussion with 3 fields: name, email & message
-> After writing his message, and when pressing send, Vanilla would register him as a user, logging him automatically just like WordPress does
-> At the same time he would receive an email with a reminder to his registration and a random password
-> Whenever he visited the site again, he would be remembered by Vanilla: "How are you today? Do you want to recall what you did last summer?"
-> If he tried to post again later using the same email without cookies, we would keep the post in standby and send him an email with a confirmation link to post and auto logging him again. In that same email or when he reaches the confirmation page we would suggest that he should change the password to one that he could recall so that he doesn't have to go through this process again
Suggestions to your concerns are bolded.
How can I create an alternate authentication for new users in Vanilla 2? I dont know what controller method to override/implement. Any help will be appreciated.

It is the most wanted feature by me... It could looks like checklist next to category list. When you "checked" category posts in this category doesn't show in "All Discussions".
- Discussion Overview
- Invite Only registration
- Inline Images
- attachments
- display real name (like IPB)
- mark all as read
- show all unread (with counter)
- attachments
- textile
Once you click to post a comment on a user's activity and the form appears, and you change your mind, there is no cancel button to make the form disappear.
