I am stuck on Microsoft Windows at work, and there I expect (just like
a different proprietary platform I use at home):

* to know which version of Emacs is actually running (emacs-version);

* to know whether it is running on my local desktop or a remote server
   e.g. via RDP or Xming (system-name);

* to know whether the buffer is visiting a file or not; and if so,
   what the full path is to a file (%f); otherwise, what Emacs has
   named it (%b).
