Add dynamic actions and effects to reports to make them more interactive. There are several great examples of after-market products and projects that demonstrate what could be accomplished by adding JavaScript support to SSRS rendering, such as d3js.org. I think this is what many users consider to be a "modern" report UI. The work that Jason and his group have done at ForeRunner SW using JSON to layer JavaScript over SSRS in the rendering phase demonstrates how the current product could be enhanced in very specific ways.
