 I think if everybody prefers a behavior, instead of the current, it should be 
used without being afraid of breaking things.
 I am thinking about Snowballs to give a little jump before falling (like BSoD 
did). It was really cool and turned them harder.

 It will be possible to disable/enable vertical, back and horizontal 
auto-scrolling.

 I have to say that's a really good idea. I remember in SM3, we would win an 
object each world, that could be used in one level only, but I think your 
idea is even better than this.
 The worldmap file should be able to enable/disable such things.
