You are the "idea guy" at Blizzard...

What do you add/change in vanilla WoW?

I would add a party zone accessed from Stormwind and Orgrimmar that lets horde and alliance chat, duel, and talk shit to one another.

Add a hidden pool filled by mutated sharks with frickin laser beams attached to their heads under capital's mailboxes. And a lever to suddenly reveal the pool, flushing all the afkers inside. Including YOU!

Bro can you stop this attention crawling fest you are doing with that green text? Or  you using it to signal you are mentally retarded or something?

I would make a big arena only for alliance/horde without faction interaction just next to the battlemaster in IF/Org to be able to duel 10 meter away from taking the queue.

X BG marks from each BG are required to remove your weekly raid lockout

Allow the PvP token quest giver have a quest reward of reset talents if you were exhalted with all 3 PvP factions.

That is a great idea!

Id probably implement a system where animations are chosen like in a wwe game. So if a human wanted to swing like an undead they could. If an orc wanted a 2 hand knight elf swing they could. If you wanted to run a certain way or walk a certain way. Just more options and more of these animations to choose from too.

I'd create a questing and gear system that progressed with full sets the whole way to 60. So like the defias set, their would be that for every class the whole way to 60. I might not care anymore since I've played wow for so long but during classic I hated the mismatching system. However I understood it's purpose for the time. Seeing decked out full set 60's gave you something to strive towards. I just think that gear could still match from 1-60.

I'd change respecting entirely and allow people to just save presets of what talent tree they want. Perhaps for balancing issues you'd only be able to change your spec at a trainer but I never understood blizzards infatuation with pigeon holing you into 1 spec and having it cost a tremendous amount of gold to consistently respect to enjoy and play around with your character.

i would have assembled a team to implement popular addons under the blizzard UI so people can pick and choose how they want their ui to look. 

Who knows what else, that's good for now though.

As the idea man at Blizzard, an endangered and hunted species, I dodge from cubicle to cubicle, deftly and desperately avoiding Bobby Kotick's hit squads, who will chain me up in the basement and shock my nuts with a car battery until I agree to implement microtransactions that will strip mine my project's player base.

In brief moments of safety I, and those like me, develop and code with quiet fingers and hushed voices, the knowledge that each day might be our last hanging heavily over all. 

It's a touch and go life, guerilla development, but one day I dream of uniting what's left of Blizzard and freeing Morhaime from the oubliette, and going back to the old days, when everything I did wasn't sculpted by fear.

Edit:  Oh, sorry.  What was the question?  I got a little off track.

Add 60% mounts to level 20.

Keep 100% mounts @ level 60

Besides balancing the classes? 

I'd continue to add level 60 content relevant to people who did not want to participate in playing the TBC expansion. I have this dream about a "World of Warcraft: Expanded Universe" where we DO NOT follow the heroes who've crossed over the Dark Portal to stop Illidan and the Burning Legion, where we don't follow the heroes who traveled to Nortrhend to stop the Lich King even - no, I have a dream where a significant portion of the game is devoted to those who stayed behind to fend off local dangers, gather resources for those fighting in Northrend or Outland, continue the fight against the opposing faction in who knows what development. 

We could implement all sorts of raids and content based on what we know is going to happen lorewise during Cataclysm. I could see questing areas, dungeons and raids being added such as:

1. Assault on Maestra's Post (both Alliance and Horde must play through the siege of Astranaar and defense of Maestra's Post, both sides involve an assault phase and a "we have to run for our lives" phase as well, the latter being done in the spirit of "Halls of Reflection" dungeon)
2. Gates of Uldum as we fight against the wind elementals and tol'vir of the Neferset tribe pouring in and out of the gate 
3. Northwatch Hold (Alliance) and Southshore (Horde) campaign
4. Various campaigns against all sorts of factions in different areas: demons at the portal, centaurs in Desolace, Shadow Council in the Eastern Kingdoms etc.

And so many other things I could see being implemented to keep the Universe alive and evolving in parallel to the main story. The rewards could either be cosmetic or comparable to quest / raid gear of previous patches to keep the main raids of vanilla relevant.
