it would be great if there was the option to change the display of the node title, per queue.

I have a bunch of nodequeues where my admins would like to have a slightly different title for the link, depending on the queue its in.
I was thinking something like, another column in the table where you manage the queues, that has an open textfield in it. If it's left blank, it would default to the nodes title.

what do you think?

This seems out of scope for Node Queue. Maybe you should consider adding another CCK field and then use Auto Nodetitles to generate/hide the title field.

I'm also looking for something like this. A node may potentially be added to several nodequeues, and require a different title in each one.

The problem with adding extra CCK "alt-title" fields to the node itself is that we could need a lot of them, and editing those titles becomes decoupled from the nodequeue editing, which is confusing for editors - they (and I) will somehow need to be able to relate each alt-title field in the node edit form to a specific nodequeue. This doesn't seem like a good approach to me, the alternative node titles are very nodequeue-specific and I would expect to edit them there.

There is a proposal for a "nodequeue annotate" module at http://drupal.org/node/442772 that might fit the bill.

This also looks interesting: Add to queue from Node edit form
