Plug-in

We're doing a marketing consultancy for a software company exploring the potential of porting their current products over to Vegas. I'm currently not at liberty to say who they are, but I WOULD like input from folks about what plugins they WISH they had for Vegas. Audio or video, as this company currently does both with a heavy lean to the video side of things.
So, if you could have ANY sort of plugin for Vegas, what would it be? What would they be?

After Effects or Hollywood FX?

Motion tracking such as in Commotion Pro or After Effects.

Two more to add:

1. Closed caption plug-in to convert closed captions to subtitles, and permit subtitles (or any other text) to be encoded back into the DV stream.

2. Read date/time and overaly on the clip, just like current timestamp plug-in.

Boy I have a few that haven't been mentioned:

High quality deinterlacer.
hHgh quality Photozoom type uprezzing interpolation.
Compression artifact remover.
What would be ideal would be an all-in-one deinterlacer/cropper/resizer/compression artifact remover that was really high quality and used the best algorythms available.

The other thing I'd like to be able to do is drop redundant lines from fake 16/9 and replace them with high quality s-spline interpolated lines.

One step further on the closed caption: after the normal soundtrack is entered on the timeline press an icon to create additional caption track
automatically using voice recognition software that works.

A true Paint module, and a keyer/tracker. Ah, and if it's possibile, also a plugin to link to Illusion.

1. Sony to give it up.. Allow Scripts/Fx access to the Date/Time stamp info
2. Read date/time and overaly on the clip, just like current timestamp plug-in.
3. Generate a Subtitle file using Date/Time stamp with settable durration ie how many frames to display. which then could be used in the final rendered product
4. Motion tracker/stabilizer
