Merge folders option when copying/moving
When copying a folder to a location where a folder with the same name already exists the only option is to replace the folder (and loosing all files from the replaced folder) or stop the copy/move operation.
Add a "merge" button/option when there are duplicate foldernames while copying/moving, so the user can choose what he wants.

QuickLook: Sound volume of QuickLook not adjustable and too loud by default

The Finder has no tabbed browsing option. Tabbed browsing would improve productivity for anyone who is familiar and comfortable with tabbed browsing (a lot of users). Tabbed Browsing is an option in Safari and the Terminal, why not in the Finder?
Add tabbed browsing in Finder, and the ability to drag files to tabs to move/copy them to the location of the tab.
