An installation process that is automated. I really don't mind if it's text based or has a graphical interface. As long as the tedious steps are all automated, it's all good.
Semi-rolling release model would be nice. I mean, give me small security updates for many months then maybe 2 or 3 big updates a year. No clean re-install for big updates, I hate those.
Offer a minimal image, for those who already know how to assemble their own desktop environment.
Offer scripts to setup dedicated tools for a language or workflow. I don't work on java, but I have been told that is a pain to setup on linux, so it would be nice if there was some script that does everything for you. So instead of having a lot of programs installed what you could do is create scripts that can install those tools for you.
