Hello Jason,
Everything seems to be functioning fine. It just took me a bit to acclimate myself to this handy little plugin.
I personally dont see the need for field types, as I believe the custom fields extension serves a different purpose. Also, as you said, you can add images via the tool bar. You can also switch to html, if you need to add something special. Maybe if they were using one field for Youtube, etc. and always wanted a non wysiwyg field?
About the only thing I can really think of is maybe a shared block. For example, you have three fields: main, sidebar, footer. For each page the Main and Sidebar are unique, but the footer is the same for all, but can be edited within any page. Maybe a check box to mark it as shared, and that same box would show up in all pages. I dont know if I am explaining that clearly or not?
Regards
