With the tpl refresh that I’m helping with in Drupal 7, it would be good to get those ideas ported into Zen 6.x-2.x.
I don't like making changes to the HTML in tpl files after a release is stable. So adding those changes into Zen 6.x-1.x would be kind of mean to people using it.
Issue queues can be a poor window into big picture ideas, but this issue will link to the specific issues for this idea as they are created.
page.tpl.php:
