I personally would love to see a tightening up of the clock. While I don't regularly have to play with any Kassoufs in my local card room, I have definitely encountered the guy who takes 30 seconds to consider every hand, even if it's really a snap fold. Drives me crazy.
Checking the nuts is probably the rule that I see the most confusion about. It comes up at least once every three or four times I play and there's never any consensus at the table about what the actual rule is (and the floors even get it wrong sometimes). I would be glad to see that one go.
I saw the blog post today on this topic. Looks like some thoughtful applications of common sense. I especially like the clarification of the way ambiguous bet amounts will be interpreted.
