Well, since this thread is back from the dead, I might as well chime in with some things I think would be interesting:
Pencilfish (I can never find them, and they're a nice "other" schooling/shoaling fish for a SA setup)
Leopard Ctenopoma
Dwarf Chain Loaches
Archer Fish
African Butterfly Cichlids
Odessa Barbs
Farlowella Catfish
Asian Rummynose Rasbora (sawbwa resplendens)

Wierd how different hobbiests have different sourcing nightmares... I have Pencilfish, Leopard Bushfish, Dwarf Chain Loaches and Odessa Barbs locally!
I would love to see the following locally:-
Lionhead Cichlids
African Butterfly Cichlids
African Fan Shrimp
Indian Red Squirrel Loaches (available at Fareham based wholesaler only)
Alestes Tetra
They seem like a "perfect fish". I am surprised they are not more common in pet stores. The very local stores don't have a ton of fish, but they don't generally have kribs.
A few fish I wish I didn't see in pet stores are Oscars, painted fish, Irridescent sharks and Flowerhorns. I think Oscars are fine for experienced fish keepers, but there is no reason they should be in Petsmart.
