Feature Wishlist Part 1

...after my first day playing the game. Being that I've only taken the faintest step into the world to SoR some of these are probably going to be in-game already and I've just not stumbled across them yet. Please let me know if that is the case.
1) The ability to remap the keyboard!! Help! Please tell me this is already available.
2) Esc clears windows not stickied...ie inventory, trainer, and item subwindows.
3) More in depth character customization.
4) Civilizations actually having an effect on your abilities. Right now it just seems like each race is a different wrapper for the same thing.
5) More music. I dig the ambient fade that queues up at random times but some more background music would be nice to break up the areas of the map.
6) Finally, how about a more detailed map system.
Anybody else have any peeves/suggestions?

1) Press 'K' on your keyboard and remap away
3) MORE?...already more than most MMOGs out there...
4) I believe this is in store for the future...
5) Also coming with Patch one
6) What do you mean by this?

Sweet, thanks for the info and I'll be remapping pronto.
In response...
The character customization is mediocre at best. Theres no skin color adjustment, and the body/face customizations could be more incremented to allow for a greater range of features. Don't get me started on the tattoos. It may be my own personal taste but the only tattoos I can stand to see are the Matis set. The Zorai tats look like kabuki vomit and the Fyros look like they fell asleep at a rowdy frat party.
Also the map system, from what I understand of it, seems pretty inadequate. Zooming in doesn't show the terrain or inhabitants any better. Used in conjunction with the radar it does ok.
Maybe City of Heroes and Star Wars Galaxies have spoiled me when it comes to map options....and also character customization on second thought.
Not saying that this game doesn't have a lot of great features but just wanted to discuss the features that leave some room for improvement.

I'd like to see a feature to change one's name/nickname on the forums. I thought the forum nick and login nick were seperate entities, but I was so very wrong.
In all seriousness, one of the many things on the top of my head that should be added into SoR...
Full Character Name customization. The NPCs have full names, why can't we? I'd like a first and last, and possibly the use of apostraphe's in the event I desired to create something outlandish.

I'll add my 2 cents...
The ability to lower/turn off the monkey sounds in the jungles!! Or at least let us kill them to shut them up!
