Packages wishlist?
-
A package I would most like to see is one where you can get user reports from captive portal. The current ones (I have tried so far) lack that capability. Have looked extensively found many suggestions but none leading to success as yet, still working on it though.

A package for only blocking facebook.

For the internal UPS series from Bicker are management software available that is also running under FreeBSD. So this would be cool to see as a package for pfSense.
The software is named UPSilon 2000 and is matching to the entire series as I see it right, and over this
management software it is able to sut down the pfSense firewall at a electric break or cut from the electricity supplier. Here is another link to the hardware:

A package for only blocking facebook.
You can do this with pfBlockerNG and the following list:
http://bgp.he.net/AS32934#_prefixes
or
http://bgp.he.net/search?search%5Bsearch%5D=facebook&commit=Search
If you don't want to install pfBlockerNG, you can build your own list from this:
whois -h whois.radb.net '!gAS32934'

This is one major omission IMO:
We have a notification mechanism that sends out email
Alerts, but it does not alert when software/package updates are available even though the system is aware of them as they are shown on the dashboard…The pfSense system, particularly in a SoHO setup isn't something I feel like messing around with on a daily basis, it's set & forget for the most part. So there may be weeks going by before I have a reason to log in: then I see close to a dozen packages have updates available.
If I could get e-mail notifications as they become available that would make managing a pfSense setup much smoother.

Someone please create a package for http://nxfilter.org!!
It will make pfsense that much more awesome!I use nxfilter at my office, routing all DNS through it, I create a rule in pfsense that the nxfilter box is the only host allowed to use port 53 to the outside, so all DNS is "forced" through it.
I then setup DNS servers for nxfilter, then I setup DHCP servers and all other devices and hosts on the LAN's/VLAN's to use nxfilter for DNS (DNS Forwarder).
This makes it virtually impossible for anyone to get past the Content filter!Think of Schools and how handy this would be! (well also enterprise setups)

must have: nginx :)

I also would like to see a pfsense package for FreeNAS ( http://www.freenas.org ), the installation instructions that Ive seen has been way to complex.

DNS malware blacklisting using Unbound DNS
I found this project online that will feed in DNS blacklists and create a Unbound DNS file. This would be great as a extra measure to stop malware. It could be modified to allow any text file to be parsed to create a blacklist also.

It would be great to add IPMI support to zabbix proxy (and maybe dependant ipmitool)?

Does anybody use paris-traceroute? I hope somebody will add it to pfSense because it's more accurate than regular traceroute or MTR.
Its homepage: http://www.paris-traceroute.net/ and FreeBSD port: http://www.freebsdsoftware.org/net/paris-traceroute.html
My comparison between MTR and paris-traceroute:
MTR on pfsense:
Paris-traceroute from LAN
