This user made theme should be the default on ST2 for Mac as far as I'm concerned. Cure for ST2 ugliness: https://github.com/buymeasoda/soda-theme
Design is not a theme.
Split views are coming. From the post: "Split views: Yes, I actually had this on the alpha milestone, I’m not overly excited about this feature myself, but I know it’s a very common request, so eventually it should find its way into the application."
I don't get why people think this is an editor feature, and not an OS feature. When I want to view two files at the same time, I open two windows, and put them side by side. Not everything needs to be fullscreen all-the-time. Let the OS manage windows. It's better at it! Besides, having windows automatically become half-maximized is easy with the right tools, like BetterTouchTool (Do it with a gesture!), or Divvy.
New windows should be a part of the same project they were opened from.

No blow should pass, without two blows returned: * http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/SudoSave * http://stackoverflow.com/questions/95631/open-a-file-with-su... (I jest. Vim is an awesome editor and I recommend it to all my friends using Eclipse, Visual Studio, and XCode. But true enlightenment lies in Emacs, where vim is only another mode called evil: http://emacswiki.org/emacs/Evil )

There is one feature in TextMate that's not in Sublime which I really love to the point, where it's an absolute requirement for me: when I edit a file in TextMate and my account lacks permission for saving the file, TM would allow me to sudo right from the GUI in order to still save. This is much better than seeing that I can't save, copy the whole file to the clipboard, reopen it with 'sudo vim' and then pasting it…

I really hate ST2's handling of project-wide file system controls on the left. Renaming a file keeps the old buffer open and I've been caught a few times re-saving under the old name. I've yet to figure out how to open a project directory from the GUI, too. I always liked the file browser column in TM better.
The rename problem is a real ugly bug. Lots of votes on the userecho.com site, but nothing has been done with it yet. > I've yet to figure out how to open a project directory from the GUI, too. What's wrong with File -> Open Folder or Project -> Open Project?

The OS isn't better at it if there is none or limited ability to manipulate the windows in a keyboard driven way. I use and love the 3rd party tool SizeUp, but SublimeText2's integrated pane management (including moving tabs between them) is far better than plain windows.
On linux, I've been using tiled window managers exclusively for about three years now and the lack of good tiling features is almost painful when I use windows (though the win7 tiling features certainly were a welcome addition). I personally hate having to reach for the mouse if I'm typing, so tiled window managers are a perfect fit for me.

Or I'm really fast?
Faster to 1) leave the keyboard, 2) navigate with the mouse to the project pane, 3) select file, 4) back to the keyboard etc than to press 2-3 keys in Vim to move between NerdTree and your content and open whatever? I don't think so. In the very least, you could just use NerdTree with the mouse, exactly like TM, and it would be the exact same speed.

I don't really understand why the application has to support full screen mode. Isn't that something the window manager should really be doing?
It's opt-in for old projects, but it's as simple as compiling the app with Lion support without code changes or compatibility issues to turn on the flag for the window in IB. (Obviously, for new Lion projects, it's automatically enabled). The issue of checking in code comes when you want to add an "Enter Fullscreen" menu item, which requires a tiny bit of code to make sure you don't call "toggleFullscreen:" on a wind…
