Like others here, I'd like to be able to use scrolling and I'd also love a sort feature for the feeds themselves.

Love the nice, simple, clean look.
I really love that it's not too memory-hungry.
I'd like to see 2 additions: scroll wheel support and the ability to choose background colors. (Hate to even ask, because it makes me seem ungrateful or hard-to-please.)
Great job. Thank you!

Could OPML import be considered for a future release? It would also be nice, if possible, to enable the mouse scroll wheel and also to allow the window to be vertically resized. But these are minor additions compared with the very full functionality already there!

Otherwise, this is my favorite one!

2 things I would like to see if possible: Ability to rename the titles of the feeds, and also the ability to reorder the feeds.
