#2I would pay for it if it also tagged feed items in Google Reader as well.

That's entirely possible. What sort of tags do you use? Is it just 'interesting/boring' or do you have a more complex set of tags?

#4No, I wouldn't. And I wouldn't use it, even if it were free.
The current system of labelling via filters gives me fine-grained control from the very first e-mail. Machine learning will require a (possibly long) training period, and may still then be prone to false positives and negatives.

Me neither, same thing, current filtering seems like a better way than some fuzzy automated labeling thing.

#6I love the first comment on the post. OP: brief explanation of idea First comment: skepticism indicating complete lack of comprehension of post

#7But what I would use (might pay for) is a service that makes my attachments easily findable. An attachment browser, basically. The UI would have to be within Gmail, no external page. Don't put the emails central, put the attachments central. Order by date received. Group by received from same people/same filename. Optional grouping by type (ie: All | Images | Office docs | ...) Add a left-hand link "Attachments".

#8Google's search is powerful enough and fast enough that I find I really don't need to do much labeling.

I am thinking more of auto categorization. "programming languages," "art/design", "lulz," "gaming," etc. But certainly with "interesting to me" as a component of each category.
