Loads of wonderful ideas here, in particular Zereh's post at #14 !!
...I myself hate how when you are washing the lid by hand, it rolls around in the kitchen sink, making nasty noise and leaving scuff marks at the bottom.
Or how when I'm making a stew and I want to let the ingredients sit in the big pot in the refrigerator, but the lid prevents me from storing it the way I want.
