+1 on ordered chapters. Can't believe xbmc doesn't support this yet. Worse than anime that just cut out the into/credits are the 2in1 files that combine different cuts, theatrical and directors cut for instance. Those are basically unplayable in xbmc :\

Support for Matroska Audio (.mka)
1) It would be good if .mka could also be added to the list of default audio file extensions since they already play fine in file mode if you add the format to advancedsettings.
2) Matroska Audio files (.mka) can support tags, so it would be great if support for this could be added, so the files can be added to the library. One big benefit of .mka is that you can use it as a container for various multichannel audio formats that doesn't natively support tags, like .dts, .ac3, .mlb and dts wav, without transcoding it to some other format.
3) On a related sidenote: Smart Filters for audio files don't have a rule for filtering on the number of audio channels, which would be very useful for separating stereo and multichannel music.

Smart Automatic Library Cleanup on scan.
XBMC should not delete Media in case it can't mount the network filesystem where the files should be, or the mount point for the external HDD can't be found.
This is an essencial usability feature that PLEX already has for some time now. This might seem irrelevant for those who like to collect movies, but for those who need to delete movies frequently to free up space, it is a PITA to have to go and clean files manually everytime.
If/when XBMC fixes this, I'm ready to jump ship, until then with PLEX I must stay

well iv been using this program for less then a week but the thing i really wana be able to do is stream to other devices. I can stream to my samsung smart tv right now by right clicking a video file and pressing "play to" but i cant find an option like that on xbmc. shur you can host files and access it from the smart tv but some videos im watching from the apps that stream from online so i cant access them on the tv.
Sry if this is already capable of doing so. if so someone wana point me to it?

It's coming. There is a "play with" feature in XBMC's
development builds (wiki), but so far it's only working with other XBMC targets via UPnP. The plan is for it to eventually work with UPnP/DLNA TVs as well.
