A great list!
You could perhaps add:
First person perspective
Lots of overhearing/eavesdropping
Hero is also a suspect
Long narrative re heroine's childhood
A serious tale, no wisecracking
Finding a diary of the mysteriously deceased
Last minute rescue by hero
Heroine is fond of taking long walks
A minstrels' gallery
No hot explicit sex scenes
I'll try to think of more as well.
