This is a pretty good list. I don't know that I'd add a second 7.1 analog input, though, since the arrival of HDMI inputs will actually start to remove the need for these inputs. Folks are going to use HDMI for the new HD formats, leaving just DVD-A and SACD to maybe use multichannel analog - and even then, the last generation or so of DVD-A/SACD players have more often then not included HDMI v1.1 outputs. I'd also hang onto at least one or two composite and s-video inputs for legacy devices and other unusual components (SMS-1, for example).
