What else?
1) Basic QoS features would be a pretty good thing to touch on, particularly since the majority of the questions I seem to see pop up are "Is this good enough for streaming _____?" In reality, probably not the biggest deal and many seem to do some sort of automatic prioritization of network traffic, and those that would configure it probably already know what to look for in it.
2) Guest networking presence (since you're touching on USB/NAS features, it would be nice to know that Christian Grey doesn't have to make available all the pictures on his home network to his guests)

I'll add those in, but you're right that most routers prioritize traffic pretty well. I've tested some of the network prioritization options on a few routers and never saw any significant difference. Routers pretty well know that when two devices are suddenly demanding a burst of uninterrupted up and down stream bandwidth respectively, those devices are the priority at the moment.
Thought about covering DD-WRT flashing, but I think that's targeting people who don't really need a guide.
