Technically bitcoin is doing a bang-up job.  It's time to start working on user-friendliness, which has a ways to go for the average Sally.

This has been brought up before, but having Bitcoin.org offer a real live non-self-signed HTTPS certificate would still also do well to bolster credibility.

Every newbie, I do mean every newbie, complains about the loading of the blocks on initial download of the bitcoin software.  Can we have some soft of info bubble, popup, or something, anything to let newbies know they need to wait for the blocks to download?  I think it would be very beneficial for newcomers.
