actually, this article was interesting features within Vista but does =
not address the specific *programming* Vista-only features -- stuff only =
available within Vista, by programming specifically *for* Vista.
I know that Vista is primarily backwards-compatible but what =
"features-and-benefits" are Vista only from a programming perspective?

Ross,
The magic word here is "development", not "programming". Start with this page:

The inability of many programs to store data in the C:\program files\program
name\ folder.
The 'improved security' in Vista will prevent programs from writing data to
the folder, so you have to program to store data elsewhere.
For a new program, not a big deal.
For older programs, I just install them somewhere other than Program files.
If the program performs any actions that requires admin rights, you will
have problems with UAC in Vista.
This question would probably get better answers in a programming or
scripting group.
