At no point is she designated the romantic interest of another character (there's a very touching scene with Hawkeye, but to me it just played out as two soldiers who've had each other's backs for so long that they just know one another and care for each other), which for an action flick, is just amazing. She also has a pretty big role in the finale (second only to Tony's, I think). And her costume, while sexy, is no more sexified than any of the menfolk (it helps that Joss Whedon apparently considered that half of his audience would/could be female and indulged some equal opportunity fanservice. Possibly more than equal...)

Also, there is Agent Hill, who only has a small, but intense role. And I was very pleased to notice that while they're in the SHIELD headquarters, it looks like half of the agents and staff are women. Just background characters, like the rest of SHIELD, but to me, seeing two women marching down the corridor in military garb when it could have just as easily been two men is kind of a big deal in an action flick.

Oh my god, I definitely have to see this movie now. I know it might sound ridiculous but just the idea of unnamed female extras in positions of implied power is so much more awesome to me than a 'special' woman character. Maybe just because so often they're treated outside of the norm, like they overcame their inherent handicap or something.
