There is no suggestion thread so..here we go.
A new first person mod has come out named SharpeYe, it simulates motions, movements, etc..
like Mirrors Edge, and adds it to Gmod. It is very cool.

Gmod (49) SharpeYe Addon (http://youtube.com/watch?v=2VIWu0fhIs4#normal)
Info: Ha3 (also known as Hurricaaane) created a client-side eye-candy lua addon, which adds head motion to GMod's first person view. It stores data about the player's actions and combines them to create effects as seen in games like Mirrors Edge.
It also adds some sounds triggered when diving into water, hitting a wall or landing. As mentioned before, this is a client side addon which means that it is NOT sent to clients if installed on the server. A feature to send it to clients will be added soon by Ha3.
Sound Emitter: Self explanatory.

More to come.
This is just a suggestion thread.
There was actually a planned forum section called Community Involvement, which would involve a suggestion area. Most of the forums are incomplete, as you may have guessed.
I looked through your suggestions, and here's what I have to say:
SharpYe is pretty cool, albiet it seems like your character is pretty unbalanced. However, it's a clientside thing, thus it's up to the player whether or not they will use it. I worry about possible exploitation.
Sound Emitter we should get
Particle Controller we have
Those ragdolls you suggested, while awesome, are not rigged nor configured for animations. In their current state, they're no better for playermodels than a regular prop.
Only one of those things were workable playermodels (Blitzkrieg), but the rest are just useless :S

Exploitation? What do you mean. Also, this looks good and all, doesn't seem like it'de fit TOO well in RP, since there isn't THAT much movement going on. That's just me though, looks like a really good future addition though, when it hits servers.
God this would be even more awesome with View kick from SWEPS. Oh, now that I think about it, I wonder if these conflict with SWEP view kick at all?
Sharpeye has some issues with sprinting. Mainly, if you do it for more than two seconds your screen flips the fuck out.
