Very simple - high immersion above all. Then high motion resolution (crystal clear image during fast movement). Next static resolution. Then color.

Huh? Two words: black crush. I'd rather dim the lights to see everything than not even have the option to see everything.Like most plasmas, CRT's look like washed out garbage when not used in light-less rooms (example) which makes them far from ideal.

Dream monitor = 4K SED or FED 28-inch display.
Other than that, my current display is about as perfect as it can get for me. I just wish that CRT was continued so that they could continually improve deflection yokes (geometry and convergence) and tighter dot pitches. But oh well - guess we'll never see what they could have been.
But how big a CRT gets?
I think I read they could never get glass tubes larger than 50" or 60" to maintain vacuum, or there was something wrong with the phosphors, dunno google it.A CRT can be any size, but the larger they get, the heavier and bigger they become.
Maybe for phones. For computer monitors it's been 14 years of promised futures. They remain an $8K option with no announced plans from anyone to change the situation.4K
30"
OLED (more likely IPS)
120Hz
G-Sync
Color calibrated for photo work from the factory.
Make it happen.
Anyone who doesn't own an OLED phone (everyone who owns an iPhone) doesn't know what they're missing. OLED is the future.

No crystal ball, just abilities to review established history and read English. At this point I'm convinced human gullibility is infinite. E.g. AVSForum, January 2008:In the early-mid 90's the first commercial (crappy) 17" TN monitors cost several thousands, not many people could afford flat panels until the mid 2000's when pretty much all models were still expensive crap.
(and before even making it to standalone monitors, lcd's were only found on horrendously expensive portable computers)
It took over a decade for that technology to become affordable and mainstream, a decade without a major financial crisis in the middle that is.
So before killing OLED maybe give it more time ? It's the first alternative to lcd and plasma to make it this far, or maybe you have a crystal ball ?
It's more desperation and frustration than anger. I've been nursing two 22" CRTs for 15 years but not even CRTs last forever, and currently the only way to replace current functionality (i.e. no backlight/input lag/video ghosting/etc/etc) is to drop $8k on an OLED panel that begins to decay immediately. My 2040u was one-eighth that price and it's lasted 15 years. The other option is to drop $2500 for a wide gamut LED monitor that still sucks at video.Dunno why you call 7 years an eternity, LCDs were available in the early 80's as well, plasmas too existed way before they could become commercially viable, their history is all about long periods of no-progress in-between advances, wasted money, few early shitty models for rich professionals, etc. all that shit cost a lot in R&D, time, trial and error.
So why would it be absolutely impossible for OLED to experience a similar slow progress/history ?
Whatever, you seem kind of pissed about the subject so I guess let's wait about another decade to see where it goes.

120hz+ (yes I know nothing can possibly push that resolution at this frame rate......yet. But those specs would last a very long time)
We all know we want OLED, but the CRT technology is there. Maybe those folks have retired? I assume the know-how may be rusty but it's still fundamentally in place. What about material cost? We all know about economy of scale.
I'm seriously curious whether there would be a group of people sufficiently large enough to warrant a special CRT monitor aimed at a high-end gaming market. I mean, the Swift really took off.
I'm a bit more realistic than some of you guys, so this might be possible in 2-3 years.
