Also, in the book store, I want to see my most-used textbooks. Finally, the ability to load flashcard software like Anki, whether by an app store or by side-loading, would be great.

The first manufacturer to provide all of the above will get my business.
Unfortunately the market for students of Japanese is still too limited. Once in a moon there will be a ryuugakusei on a development team and some of the features you'd like will be available. The Japanese are still flabbergasted when someone wants to learn their language.
