For me its mostly about removing any form of DOS flavor, especially animations, writing and skill effects. BG inspired music and UI would be welcome as well of course.
Totally agree with this. For D:OS fans, if they agree that this is a D&D/BG game and NOT a D:OS game, then they should be perfectly fine with this game not looking and feeling like a D:OS game. And for those of us who are not D:OS fans, it immensely helps us appreciate this game for what it is if it does not remind us of a game we dislike. As such, this should be a point of agreement for everyone.
