It's a major development annoyance that double quotes (") cannot be used for string values in Apex. It is not only inconsistent with other similar languages (Java, C#, etc) but is also inconsistent with other force.com technology like VF pages and formula fields.
This makes it annoying for developers when context switching between other languages and Apex.
It would be great if Apex could support both single and double quotes for strings like JavaScript does.

Currently you can only embed a Visualforce page as an inline control in a page layout. You should also be able to build a custom related list with a visual force page and have it appear like a normal related list does. An admin should be able to reorder it in the page layout as well.
There are cases where you want to build a related list with custom functionality. For example, the Notes and Attachments related list on the Account displays Attachments not just from Account but also from Cases, Contacts, and Opportunities linked to the Account. If you wanted to replicate that for other objects, you're not able to and still have it look like a standard related list.

The current Apex Debug code log will maintain 20 logs for a given user. When that threshold is reached, no more logs are generated for that user and you need to add that user again for logging.
It would be nice to enable a "rolling" set of 20 logs so that the last 20 logs for the user are maintained and there is no need to add the user again after 20 logs have been created.
