Although some of their questions were not working properly.
What I'd most like to see is having the restrictions lifted on displaying competing ads on the same pages as AdSense.
If I can get a better eCPM from combining an AdSense leaderboard with a skyscraper from a competitor, why should I be prevented from implementing that combination?
Wherever I could I asked them to allow a minimum bid for site targeted ads, I get a lot and the eCPM is laughable, then further on into the questionair I got to the page about site targeted ads, made the same comment there and also set 'picking advertisers' as second choice.

...also made the point that all accounts should list the domains they own and use with adsense, then any other domains displaying ads with your account number would then be blocked.
Yes, I made that suggestion as well!
The questionnaire didn't tell me that I could win the iPod, but Google's inviting email did :)
I suggested they should have a listing of the top ads being clicked on for a period, and generally better reporting. Such as excel .xls templates with graphs etc of your data and tools to keep it up to date.
A couple of my sites make money solely from AdSense but they are neither MFAs nor do they take advantage of click arbitrage (I don't even use AdWords). I would be interested in using 10% (for example) of my AdSense earnings to drive more traffic to the websites through AdWords and see what effect that had on my overall AdSense income. Even if the income decreased it would mean greater exposure for my websites and I could consider charging for advertising due to increased readership etc...
I didn't get the survey, so thank you for submitting this to them! I have had the same problem for at least a year too. I think it occurs beause of using ad-regions becuase it started shortly after I started adding them.
