#1 idea:
In case of successful attack , it should be a option to check number of files (core joomla files) in strategic folders like:
includes, media, components. After I had this attack I have found some strange files (.php and .db) .
I mean a simple counting ex. media/system/js - has 16 core files etc.
Or tool similar to Version Verification Tool or Eyesite (from JED)

#2 idea:
Option to show history list of installed extensions with date like (only this):
com_akeebabackup - installed on 12 nov 2010 12:00 by Admin
com_jce - installed on 5 may 2009 12:22 by Zoozol

#3 idea:
System will check ID of super administrator so if it see that is still ID 62 - should ask you to change for security reasons.

1. Take a look at our SiteDiff application. This is what it does.
2. Not possible without replacing com_install (well, it is in theory possible, but it will have many false positives and false negatives when trying to figure out if an extension has been installed)
3. It's on my to-do list :)
