I think having the ability to target multiple OS releases with a single
compiler would be great!  A fair portion of 'customization' work on our
newer code relates to back level compatibility.  Just because a customer
doesn't move their OS ahead doesn't mean that they shouldn't be able to take
advantage of newer language enhancements... unless there's some OS specific
change.

I don't like coding something multiple times - like undoing EVALR code or
%DIV and %REM into RPG III style code.
