Notification centre, MC, & Dashboard
You don't need to click the icon in, the status bar, to close Notification Centre. just swipe left to right (or right to left) on trackpad (if you have "Swipe pages" option enabled in TrackPad settings)
Same can be applies to Mission Control, and Dashboard (click or tap, to close)

Wait, when did this thread turn from neat tricks and feats of Mountain Lion to OS X 10.9 feature suggestions, bugs and glitches?
Anyway, I like the trackpad gesture to open Notification Centre as well as the ability to click and drag/swipe away notifications. I also really like the somewhat hidden terminal-notifier ability you can get.
Terminal is frigging awesome on Mountain Lion. UNIX ftw

Probably mentioned in the previous 60+ pages, but in case people didn't go through all that.. there's neat feature while in Mission Control.
Using trackpad, you can thumb and three finger spread on any of the application windows and focus/expand those windows. IE if you have 10 finder windows open, it'll spread those windows open more in mission control view.

The only terminal-notifier I know of is this: https://github.com/alloy/terminal-notifier which is installing with RubyGems. It's not bundled with ML.
It's a good app though, I use it for notifying me when my commands are done running. I don't think either Terminal or iTerm comes with that feature.
This only happens for applications you get from the App Store (they must have an assigned category when they get submitted).
os x updates
They really need to fix safari because sometimes the UI doesn't work properly when disabling the "scroll direction" and when you try to scroll from left to right.
Also they need to make the OS a bit more snappier for the people who has traditional hard disk drive so it can be less stressful on the hard drive itself and also they need to update the full screen mode using multiple monitors and the random spotlight index.
But other than that, the OS is really good.

Does anyone know if i can just drag the files from one of the apps in my library (Logic Pro), put em on a external drive and then drag then back in after i repartition? Or do i need to reinstall everything?
By all means, chastise the guy that went through the effort of trying to help you.
Finder issues
Small detail, but when you are scrolling in Finder window (eg Downloads folder) in List View, with lots of folders & sub-folders, when browsing these sub-folders, opening/closing them shifts the view of the Finder window back to top..
Its irritating as you must scroll back down to that particular folder again you were recently viewing..
Finder should just close the current folder, as it usually does.

Well, if thats how you see it I won't even try denying the matter. Not worth it, since I was just pointing it out friendly like, my intentions were not to degrade a fellow member of this wonderful site.
I guess this sounds rather sarcastic, but its not, I mean it.
