<p>Wallet encryption is long overdue, and AFAIK is coming in the next client version (0.4.0). What are the next planned milestones in the development of the main client and/or protocol? Where can I find information about that?</p>

This question is too localised in time.  Voting to close.

Not really.  The closest I can think of is "does there exist a roadmap for development of the Bitcoin client?" so that the second answer can be on-topic.  Even that's not super amazing though, since the linked roadmap is basically just an email Gavin wrote in August.
