1] The ability to delete the errorlog imbeded in the server (that little window of text)

2] The ability to disabled output to the errorlog (maby give an option to either log to log normally, log to 'error.log' instead, or disable completly)

3] The ability to see the list of keys currently connected to the server (And possibly their IPs since some people insist on sending buffer overflow packets).

4] A bytes in/out meter on the server showing the ammount of data going through the server each second (extreamly usefull for 56k users).

5] The ability to hide the server to a small button on the toolbar (near the clock) (Very usefull for server hosts... they don't have to have a huge window button in the way all the time).

The ability to see connected keys is available right now.
keys=list()
for(client/C in world)
  keys+=C.key

And this is accessable by the server how?

I think there's a bit of mismatched terminology here. I was thinking you meant the host, not the actual BYOND server. Because if it's the BYOND server, I have no idea what you could possibly mean; connections to the BYOND server tend not to be persistent.

maybe he means dream daemon?

dream daemon has a clock, and a text output, which describes what he was talking about.

Good too

I wish, I still dont know if IP banning is possible when hosting through DS

I have a delphi component that does this ^_^. When I look at the source 98% of it's ASM so I'm sure it's a bitch to do :)
