First of all. I think this is, even in its current state, my new favorite character sheet format.
A few comments:
* I love the size of the feats section. Typically there's just enough room for the name, not the effect.
* I love that page 4 is all powers. If you fill up the space in page 3 and 4, you can just reprint 4 over and over without it looking like garbage.
* I agree that the known issues you listed should be changed.
* I'd swap the location of the skills and the feats sections. That way feats would be easily visible in combat and skills would be on the page that I'd look at when I was trying to overcome an "out of combat" situation. Sort of a "Hm, what items and skills do I have that might help out here?" page.
*I might remove all the labels on the first page and just call the whole section "notes" or "character description" or something. I mean, what if I have a huge background section, but not many enemies or whatever? You could even put all those headers back in as suggested inputs or something all at the top. NOTE: By the time I finished this post, I'd reconsidered this. I might like it more as is.
* Check boxes next to "At-Will" "Encounter" and "Daily" on the power sheet?
* If you're really gung-ho, maybe have a "Used" box on the power sheet as well, so you can keep track of what abilities you've used.
* Second Wind?
