Since we're wishing, here are a couple of very minor ones off the top
of my head that relate to Ada.Text_IO, which unfortunately I haven't
got time to draft proper requests for:

1) a Fill_Character parameter in Integer_IO.Put and similar subprograms,
   defaulted to ' ', to make it easy to print "00123" and the like;

2) Capitalised (or Capitalized, if you must ;-) as an alternative
   to Lower_Case and Upper_Case for conversions to strings in
   Enumeration_IO.
