I would like to have:
* Tournament. A Database with all crosstables of all ChessTournments ever hold
with all players in PlayerBase
* Aliased for players, since some players change their name for example when a
woman ChessPlayer marries.
* More players in PlayerBase (Best will be Chess Personalia from Jeremy Gaige
entirely in PlayerBase)
* Possibility to add players to playerbase (I have do this before since I know
enough of the format to do this ;-). But I'm not a good GUI programmer).
* Possibility to add games by typing the move (also support for old move format)
* Possibility to generate pairingstable from crosstable (and also when not all
games are known).
* NICbase/CA support (Yes I know PGN can be imported, but a better conversion is
 possible without converting to PGN first.
* open standard for CBH/etc format
* Better error detection (now it's possible to have illegal moves in your
database).
* Better data quality enhancement. (merge games, link with tournament base)

This is after 5 minutes thinking.... I can add a dozen more....
What would you like??
