Not entirely related, however we have added some small additions to the 
campaign module last week which I feel may also be worth being included 
in the core:

  * Load contacts which are in another campaign to current campaign.
  * Remove contacts which are in another campaign from the current campaign.
  * Remove contacts which are in a filter from the current campaign.

We have also been looking with a client at a solution for "static 
campaigns" which contacts are added to / removed from regularly. We have 
looked at a solution for this and believe a new tab on the contact 
showing all campaigns in the system with a checkbox would be the best 
solution to this requirement, but would be keen to hear of other ideas / 
ways that this has already been tackled by others.

Like Alan I would also like to see the campaign status for a contact / 
lead on the relatedlist within the contact/lead.
