When Cygwin gets set up, it would be more user-friendly if it placed
two icons on the desktop:
one should start maximized Rxvt; another should start X with a couple
of xterms or whatever.
First-time users might think that the MS-DOS terminal is as good as it
gets, and this is not good for Cygwin. Others still have to figure out
how to start Rxvt automatically and how to configure it to look
pretty.

Also, it would be neat to be able to keep Cygwin up-to-date automatically.
