Interesting list. I'm actually a recent Windows -> Mac convert so I still find some of the behaviors you mentioned infuriating (probably because I'm not aware of the alternatives yet).

enter to rename files

I hate this. When i press enter on a folder in Finder, 99% of the time I want to open that folder not rename it. F2 does the trick in windows.

closing the last window doesn't quit

Also another weird one for me. Why would I want to close all windows and leave the program running? Doesn't it just hog memory/cycles while it's in this mode?

confirm delete

I'd rather it confirm than not but, then again, I'm constantly fatfingering keyboard shortcuts.

window management in the mac

I still can't get used to the fact that program windows don't fully maximize without a manual resize. I want my window to go full screen automagically, not only after I take a minute to resize the window to the perfect dimensions. Maybe my mouse skillz aren't l33t but I also hate the small minimize/maximize/close buttons.
