I won't have to do this for a long time, but I've always wanted to do a shot from the characters POV looking into his/her mirror reflection. Any tricks for doing this?

Have the actor stand at an angle to the mirror, and the camera at the opposing angle. Used in Being John Malkovich a lot.

There are some good mirror shots in the short film "Longing" on this website.
