Metanote doc id 388422.1 suggests adding 'check logical' to RMAN backups to check for in-block corruption at backup time. A sample command looks like:
backup check logical incremental level = 1 database;
It would be nice if there were an option to add this to the backup command. http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14191/rcmbackp.htm#BRADV149 mentions the syntax for 10g.

ctl-exec should allow macro-like expansion of string tokens. Any string-like attribute of a target should be available.
As a trivial and contrived example, lets take os.name. I might want to do something like "ctl-exec -- touch /tmp/$OS.NAME$", and before sending the command over ssh, ctl-exec should replace $OS.NAME$ with the appropriate value.
If I had multiple application instances...

rman10g supports compressed backupsets, but it does not have a mechanism to automatically compress the control file autobackups, which if taken frequently can amount to a significant amount of data. This patch causes control files autobackups to be compressed if the backup mechanism is rman10g and compression is enabled.
Patch is against bkup12b.tar.gz.

Some sites enable auditing / alarming of failed logins, and do not allow monitoring tools to be installed directly on their oracle server. This means that --db and --login are not suitable for those installations.
A new option along the lines of --validlogin would be beneficial. It should attempt to log with a command-line provided name and password, and check for the output 'Connected to'...

Oh, and separating the configuration from the code allows a motivated person to make OS-specific packages out of these (such as RPMs), and doesn't interfere with the periodic integrity checks those tools provide.

Might I suggest that dbcontrol's DEPVAR function attempt to load its variables from an external configuration file? That way it is easier to deploy a new version of the script across a large installation without having to customize it on each host. It also makes the tool more cfengine / puppet / IDS friendly as those tools can ensure that the dbcontrol is present and unmodified.
I use a...

The following is emitted as part of a internal error:
Disclosing some of the information above due to privacy reasons is ok.
I will try to help you nonetheless, but you have to give me something

That should say 'Not disclosing [...]', otherwise it is saying that giving you information due to privacy reasons is OK, which doesn't make sense.

I would be nice if there was another field on the
password generation form that allowed you to exclude
certain characters. Just add another checkbox / text
field combo under 'Only the following characters' that
says 'Exceot the following characters'.
This will allow me to remove characters that happen to
print confusingly, such as 0/O, without having to
uncheck entire classes of...
