I like high arc faucets, because they let you get stuff under them. I haven't had any complaints about our pull-out sprayer, either, and I'll be a vote against built-in soap dispensers. (My experience is that they inevitably start leaking, and then you have a soapy mess under the sink.) The biggest thing, though, is that I only want a large, single compartment sink. Stainless steel. I resign myself to the fact that my sinks will always be scratched, because I drop things--but I want the scratching to be a purely cosmetic concern, not a functional issue as it is with enameled sinks.
