Both 2 and 3 have been requested before. I personally would like to see 2 implemented.

This is true, but when you click on the Library node, why not display all children nodes (Location, Title, Artist...) in the main window (on the right)? And when you click on Artist why not display all artists in the main window? That would ease navigation a lot and enable you to quickly go where you want to.
Yes I agree with you this would be an improvement

When analyzing volume levels, if there is a problem analyzing one file MediaMonkey displays a dialog saying something like "could not analyze this file" and waits for someone to click OK. It should continue analysis and only display errors in some kind of log or dialog when it's all done. If you are trying to analyze 10000 songs it is kind of frustrating to check back on your PC and find out that it's been waiting for you to click OK for hours because there was a problem analyzing one file.
Good improvement

This would be especially useful if you have a lot of artists in your database - you could see them all in a multicolumn display in main window, rather then having to scroll down on the left-hand artists tree...

If you right click on ALbum art you can select which art to show (selected or curently playing).
