    Parallels Dev team, listen to this idea.

    I know full screen is coming eventually, and I look forward to it. How about a bit of eye candy, just to make it mac-stylish? An easy way to switch from the full screen VM to the full screen OSX that uses a similar transition to fast user switching? Technical details aside, just think of how impressive it would be for a potential switcher when you hit a key combination and the windows screen rotates out while the osx screen rotates in. Tap the keys, and roll back over to the still running windows.

    Wouldn't that just be the coolest? (grin)

    I want to second this suggestion. I know it's just superfluous eye candy, but I've heard this idea alot from my friends when I tell them about Parallels or other vms/emulators. They all say "wouldn't it be cool if it did that spinny thing you see when you switch users? Boom! I'm in windows! Boom I'm back in OS X" or something similar :)

    You could (almost) provide this yourself with proper use of a virtual desktop manager. Use 2 desktops- one for MacOS, and another that contains Parallels running as big as it can.

    Use Expose to switch between the two windows on the Mac. You can do this now and it's just as cool.
