Furthermore, a major new release of QuickTime would have been counted as a new feature in any previous version of Mac OS. Apple hasn't said much about QuickTime X (what happened to QuickTime 8 and 9?) other than that it will use technology first seen on the iPhone for "extremely efficient" playback of modern audio and video formats.
While it would be most unusual for Apple to even indicate a likely price so far ahead of 10.6's launch, one important piece of information omitted from the release is the hardware requirement. will it be Intel only? Some rumourmongers are still saying yes, others no.
Grand Central and OpenCL would seem to be specific to later Intel-based models, but that of itself doesn't mean some of Apple's efforts at "perfecting" (should that be 'purr-fecting'?) its operating system won't also apply to late model G4 and G5-based Macs. With any luck, any information on this matter provided to WWDC attendees under NDO will leak fairly quickly.
