What I would personally like to see are updated libraries that are CPU targeted without any support for 68000 (eg remove 68000 compatibility completely).
This is an interesting idea, although it may not significantly increase performance, depending on whether processor-specific routines are branched to each time the function is called or whether there's simply a jump table that gets set to the appropriate routines at load time.
