I would like to see a refresh of the notification system, and status messages on the lock screen, which I believe was hinted at a while back in a patent filing.

Would be nice just to hit the home button while the device is in standby and see a list of recent emails, SMSs, etc.

On the contrary, please don't show a list of my info to someone when my phone is locked.

I think they mean locked as in, screen powered off, slide the block to unlock - not "enter your password" locked.

I imagine it would be disabled if you had a passcode set up.
