i've had a little list of those things written down a few years ago, when i managed to convince a teacher to be able to discuss my favourite game in class for grades
(was an awesome teacher, i passed my english exam by talking about Prophet without honour).
Maybe i should look it back up

Cool interview! Engine Beta this year? Sounds really cool!
Seems like things are going very well.

I don't know if AO was the pioneer but, on wow latest patch notes:
:PUser Interface
* Chat Frame
o Players can now right-click on any chat type (Whisper, Trade, General, Party, Raid, etc.) and choose to move conversation types into separate windows. This will move that chat type to a separate tab in the Chat frame which can be undocked and moved anywhere on the screen.
blah
Oh, something else coming with their next expansion:
Which AO added with Lost Eden. I bet we can find many other small things like that.# Many of the yellow System Messages that would display in the chat frame when leveling up have been removed.
# New text animations now alert players as they level up, also providing information on when new talents, spells and abilities are available.
blah
the thing is, that Aos Chatsystem although it may be old, is still better than most of the other MMOs, so the others should look more into it hehe.
Wasn´t AO the first MMO that allowed Flying? i´m pretty sure i´ve read this either in this interview or in the AO story on the page last week.
What WoW didn't have those?

I really like the AO chatsystem for including html stuff. We have quite a lot of freedom, plus you can click channels and names. One of the few non dated things in ao that kept improving.
That said, ingame color picker for the channels plz?
But I believe the interface really need a larger central text (like the pvp countdown) but important stuff like 'can't use this nano' or 'Target resisted', also flying numbers and text in a more visible fashion (and no teamates damage!), and flashes on available skills on the toolbar. I think we're spending too much time staring on our system spam window.
Edit: Wow chat was really barebones, they just looked at what interface mods were used the most and took them to bundle it in their default one. There was barely any info at first.

Maybe not the 3rd but AO is one of the first MMORPG of the current generation. UO, T4C, etc are also MMORPG but quite different.
You know like Articfox was the real first FPS but it's not what started the genre of the current FPS.

Unfortunately only brown nosers on forum will get invite to test engine. Meanwhile 100s of people waiting eagerly to try it will miss out.
Do you really think that all of the people out there, eagerly awaiting the new engine, would benefit from trying an unfinished product, which could crash at any time? Closed betas exist for a reason you know...
