Excellent idea!

1) I would also like to see the option/ability to show multiple products on a single page along with product options and have the ability to add any/all of the products to the cart at once. This options should also have the ability in the back end to "associate" those products together much as you do now with the "up sell" module.

This would facilitate stores that either multiple products with unique SKU's that should be sold together (such as a top and bottom in clothing/swim wear) or have multiple products that could be sold separately or as a set (bedding sets) and have options for each item. The current product configurator does not handle these situations very gracefully. For instance with the bedding sets, you would show the Comforter, Bed Skirt, Pillow Shams and pillows all on one page with their options of Size (King, Queen, Full..) and Color (Red, Blue...) and have the ability to select a quantity for each and add them to the cart all in one "Add to Cart" click.

2) I would also like to see the pricing increase of product options handled differently. Rather than simply displaying (+3) in the option dropdown, the displayed price of the item should be dynamically updated with the total price. This could be accomplished the same way that Total Cart prices are recalculated when you chose a chipping option.
