What was your favorite TES mod you'd like to see used in sky

What was your favorite oblivion mod you'd like to see used in skyrim?

Older TES games had countless popular mods from caravans to lighting to textures to new locations. What mods from previous TES games would you like to see put into skyrim?

I'll start it off with what I'd like as an example.

I used a darker nights and darker dunegons mod so that torches and night eye served a purpose. Just turning the gamma down a lone would dim light sources and the sun itself and that wasn't what I wanted but the darker nights and darker dunegons mod I used made me feel so much more immersion while I waited in the shadows to rip people apart.

There was this really great mod from Morrowind that was not exactly a house but an area for storage with multiple rooms. It was accessed via a portal on every house you could own in Oblivion in all the main towns. The first room had mannequins, there was an alchemy sorter and enchanter/spell maker room, arbortoreum filled with all types of flora, self-stacking book shelves, and a plethora of storage cases for weapons and armor. Great mod just forgot the name. I'm sure someone out there knows which one this is.

There is of course Komiko manor. Oh and then there's the mod that allows you to create a planting sack to plant plants. And going with this, another great mod was "Gather Ye Rosebuds." Spell that allowed you to gather all the plants within the cell you were in. And Akotosh's Mount - summon different drakes to ride/fly through the air with. But those are for starters :)

The morrowind start was easily one of the best starts to a game in recent memory, often copied but the impact/immersion of it has never been bettered.

All of the major companion mods. Skyrim's leave a lot be desired. CM Companions for example. Vilja (I think it was). Etc.

Also, nb4 the lock.

It would be nice for wolves to behave like...well...wolves. I could see that they'd go at me suicidally if they had rabies or something, but at this rate they should have been extinct LONG ago. In a place such as Skyrim where you kill them by the dozens it makes sense that they should have natural fear of people by now.

Bedroll you can carry.

[edit] Even though you don't need it to level up, a bedroll would be cool....and maybe a tent...camping gear...fire...etc.

All mods that add new and convincing worlds to the game: be it Tamriel province mods, Mesogea, a new mod by SureAI (Nehrim) or MERP

Vampires Embrace by Cortex, or (although not an ES mod was for FO3/NV) Real Time Settler where you build a village and make it sixy.

From Morrowind: death_ii.
From Oblivion: Nothing really substantial really springs to mind. Most of the mods I used just fixed Oblivion only bugs and fail.

Hard to pick just one so here is a few:

Hoarfrost castle (castle with a nice quest to get it)
Buyable / placeable armor mannequins.
Any mod that adds some personality to companions.

There was a mod for Morrowind that allowed you to buy various pets--domestic cats, wolves, some Morrowind specific animals. I would love cats, chickens, goats, cows, skreevers--mayabe dragons?

-Reneer's Guard Overhaul
-MMM
-Andyfall (ok maybe not this, but mounted guards would be cool)
-There was a mod for Oblivion that had city guards shrieking the "HALT! HALT! HALT!" sound bite. Yes please.
-Qarl's Texture pack. It not only made the games look more high res, but actually made them better. Something a lot of high res tex packs seem to miss these days, they just look for the highest resolution pics possible. The textures don't need to be really high res to be good, just good textures, you know?

There was a modder for Oblivion that made an entire Underdark zone, complete with black-skinned drow that looked fantastic. The underdark zones were really beautifully done too, with spiders and goblins (i think). I would love to see this.

MMM mostly.
Something like OOO that overhauls loot placement and monster leveling. Scaling is much better but I'm still not a big fan of every dungeon being packed with 30 Draugr deathlords.
