Here would be a huge leap of innovation:

if they could so much as give you the choice of locking your account down to a single bitcoin address (or a predetermined set of addresses) so thieves who successfully break into an account can't clean it out. That would instantly wipe out all of the newbies who come to the forum complaining they've been robbed and told by mtgox support to file a police report.

I know, I know, that's extremely difficult, which is why my suggestion is more than a year old and hasn't been implemented. But adding Litecoin support is so much easier and will really be a new leap in innovation!

Casascius, could you point to a thread where you/anyone discussed a process "of locking your account down to a single bitcoin address" to be used by exchanges, to manage thefts issues.

Its already utilized on several pools. Not a hard concept and works wonders.
