One highly requested missing feature (from OS 9) in OS X is the ability to "roll up" or "windowshade" a window. This reduces the window to just its title bar, allowing you to have a number of windows onscreen at one time with minimal clutter.
Unsanity's WindowShade X brings back this behavior with a vengenance. Using the power of OS X, you can actually turn any window transparent (or semi-transparent), allowing you to easily see what's behind it. There are other more traditonal shading options as well.
If you miss window shades from OS 9, WindowShade X is the only way I presently know of to get them back.
