That is a much nicer looking client than the current one.

I think perhaps if we used an interface like that of AllBitcoin, in that it support descriptions and has two panes, and then we included the additional information from the original bitcoin client and Spesmilo (transaction status, etc.), we could be on the right track.

Ideally though, I think the client should look something like online banking sites do (except somewhat more Web 2.0ish).

I think in a best-case scenario, an ideal bitcoin client would be a universal app.  Something that is functionally (and visually) identical on all devices.

Assuming bitcoin is a technology of the future (not of the present), and current users are very tech-savvy, it may be acceptable to adopt an a cross-platform library that navigates multiple technologies like OpenGL/DirectX/OpenGLES/iOS in a single API.

I was just looking at it and its look alone looks out of date, I think we can use something fresh! For MAC users it seems a little better looking though.
