Clearly Apple wants to keep the Dock simple. I imagine the Dock engineer could pony up a Dock which does what is requested here in 2 weeks at the max. That would leave us with a dock usable by power users at the risk of alienating non-power users. That includes putting too much crud in the Dock preferences.
You can already pin to the corners, for instance. Apple wrote the code. Tinkertool merely turns it on or off, graphically. Why do you want to expose this nonsense when the vast majority of people dont want it, or need it, and you have it already by fiddling with a plist.
Transparency is even more crud, that would take the engineer 2 minutes, plus the Dock preferences reworking. It may already be in there.
I agree with popup folders and the double click idea, however.
As far as DragThig goes. If you want that, and eulogise the engineer, buy it.
