As everybody else, I would mainly like to see functionality in KWord like hyphenation, mail merge, or indexing which is critical for more widespread corporate and academic use. Unfortunately, as a non-programmer there is not much I can contribute. As to DTP: I think it's great that KWord follows a frame paradigm like most programs in this area and I also think that quite a lot of ideas could be borrowed from a well-designed DTP program like Ventura Publisher. But I'm not after heavy-weight DTP functionality in KWord, ie all the professional typesetting features, high precision output, color calibration and separation etc. This would probably best be reserved to a specialized app like the KVentura project we were talking about the other day. For KWord, most of this would be a waste of ressources which only a few users would appreciate.
