If this has been already covered my apologies.
There can be a brief chapter on few important things that were in Drupal 6 and we are going to miss in Drupal 7 core. A few examples are
- a site's registered users can no more choose a theme or skin they like
- the comment control as it appears in your site will probably be no more
- there are no new features which are new to the registered users or visitors
- will there be any performance gain, lesser size, lesser cpu consumption in D 7 ?
There are also very basic privacy issues which Drupal does not address - may be there can be tips-tricks or modules added in this book to do this
- an user cannot hide / show his online status
- an user cannot hide / show his email
- an user cannot put off his feeds ( there's a patch - is it working? )
- anon users can enter there name in comments but not new posts ( why ? )
- drupal cannot search unicode text or fails frequently in case of unicode docs
