comment How can I get the chapter number like a prefix of all references
@meren: Actually (if I insert the document environment you forgot), the result is "See sections 1.1 and 2.1". Please verify that your examples compile and exhibit the behaviour.

@JOseph Wright: in particular when you run out of \v@w@ls@iv.

comment Are all package loading conflicts due to conflicting identical control sequence names?
Good point. As a word of caution, because I've been bitten by this more than I cared to be, is to be extra careful that \@ifundefined will \relax what is being tested, so eTeX' \ifcsname is the better choice, but will yield false positives because somebody else might have already \relax'ed what you're checking for. (Since hardly anything still uses non-eTeX engines, I tend to consider usage of \@ifundefined outside of a group a bug.)

comment Create an annotation for table text on the page border
@stefan: I adapted the example to handle floats: similar to footnotes, you'll have to split the margin text out of the float environment. The margin will not end up next to the float, but I believe that is an artefact of LaTeX' float placement algorithm, there's little I can do about that.

comment Create an annotation for table text on the page border
@stefan: I'd probably use something along the lines of KomaScript's \ifpageodd or whatsitsname and make the .west (vs. .east) conditional on that. If you want to go on the inner margin, that's the optional argument to \marginpar instead of the mandatory one, I believe.

comment Beamer: \againframe inside other frame
Oh, so you want something like a sort of thumbnail of a previous page? I have to admit my try would be to make a copy of your pdf and \includegraphics single pages of it.

comment Comma delimited lists
Tangentially: some operations are more easily done on \@elt-lists, i.e. \@elt{\alpha}\@elt{\beta} etc., by defining \@elt appropriately and executing of \edefing the list.
