The keynote mentioned being able to see all the media in a conversation in a summary view. This is awesome, but...

Does this view go all the way back to the beginning of that conversation? On iOS 7 you can swipe through the pictures in a conversation, but you can't swipe back very far without having to scroll up and click "Load more messages".

I'd love to have a running history going all the way back of all the pictures I've ever sent and received with someone.

Hmmm! Excellent! Can you delete media from this view? Would be nice to be able to clear out, say, videos, to save space without nuking entire conversations.

In the keynote, Craig mentioned that you can password protect the default apps. Is this feature included in this first beta??

Don't know if anyone's mentioned this yet, but the status bar icons are no longer enlarged when on the lock screen. They stay the same size as they are at any other time.

Not sure if it's a feature or bug.

I feel like it's a bug, since it was a pretty well received feature in iOS 7.

And if we wanna talk about the really, reaaaaally little things:

in Clock.app, there are no longer coloured borders around the Start/Pause/Lap buttons, and they are now all on a white circular background.
