Default Tank Stand

I'm working on designing my own tank stand (cabinet style), and I've taken a good look at most of those out there, including the pictures on the internet.

My question is, for those that have one, what would you want or not want with your current stand? Anything that annoys you? Anything you wish you had installed inside? More shelves? More space? Small pockets inside to hold certain items? Soundproofing?

My tank isn't very big (only 38g) and I've got a 20g tank which i'm going to use as a sump.

I really like Mark's idea of the removal doors (with magnets to hold them on).

One thing that looks annoying to me is the center support beam where the 2 doors usually close. I'm wondering if I can get away with this, if the stand is made strong enough (also due to the fact that its only 36" across).
