so, since the transactionfee was last adjusted in size, the value of bitcoin multiplied by more than tenfold again.
Isn't it time to push back the fee by another 2 or 3 digits?

Would be epic for smaller transactions, because it's getting excessive. the advantage of 'it has virtually no fees' is something we can't claim at the moment.

Yeah, I think so to! They should really do that for the next release! (if that's how it works, otherwise how?)

True but what about micropayments which is an area that bitcoin can easily disrupt.
With 8cents / transaction that doesn't look to be the case anymore.

I also think standard fees should be lowered, a quick patch doing this would only help Bitcoin.

This is not a problem with a sraightforward solution, as it will bloat the blockchain, checkout casascius's probabilistic nanopayment and Mike Hearn's rapidly adjusted micropayment proposals if you are interested.
