You know what, I would not complain if the fillers had Naruto learn a couple extra basic techniques. Since its pretty obvious that Kishi is never gonna give him anything but clones/rasengans/fox frenzies.

That director that does all the awesome fight scenes usually adds a crapload of extra material to those fights(like Shikamaru's scrolls), so if they had Naruto learn a few more basic wind jutsu it would give that guy more to work with.
