This may be well known already, but just in case....
The Home and Search physical buttons also support dual input like the Menu button. Hold the Home button to get the task / recent app switcher. Hold the Search button to activate a voice search from (almost) anywhere, anytime.

Great thread! Very useful and should be stickied if you are willing to keep it updated.
One thing, unrevoked has been fixed so that the root is now "sticky" and will remain after a reboot. The version that was not stickied was only available for a few hours but was removed and the new "sticky" version was uploaded shortly thereafter.
