One request that I myself am not very capable of helping with is USB WiFi. Could we maybe add that to the list?

Hello,
thanks Norman for starting this already fruitful discussion right before the holidays - I'm looking forward to all the messages from the community.
Beside the desktop environment and pushing the exciting ideas of a data-centric approach for our user interface I see further challenges in the field of networking. With LAN and WiFi access on a good path, we should invest more time into network interoperability. First, the good old NIC bridge needs a companion NAT service as environments like hotel WLANs are not that generous with multiple IP addresses per client. Next, the new NAT component as well as existing services and drivers need to become adaptable and sensitive to changing network environments - also a manual approach would be feasible IMO.
Further (as Josef and Ben also brought up), the user interface to network services must be enabled. I would be more than glad with good old mutt plus IMAP sync and Chrome on Genode. Especially the latter sounds like a worthwhile challenge.
Greets and Happy holidays
