Wind Simulation
The ability to simulate directional wind as a form of erosion. This could, for example, be used to create sand dunes in a more realistic and direct way than is currently possible.

MdnghtEtherThis would be great for large-scale climate generation as well. It could be used to simulate rain shadows behind mountain ranges or be a more realistic way of generating snowfall intensity or a precipitation map. All my attempts at using the bake lighting device to generate a climate map have been... not great (I may have taken the term "rain shadow" too literally). I understand a full 3d fluid/weather simulation would probably be too expensive, but it would be nice just to have a simple 2d fluid simulation that takes into account terrain elevation and possibly high/low pressure areas created by temperature.
