I don't think that everyone should learn to code. That's pretty idealistic and far fetching idea. I can get behind "Everyone Should Understand Basics of Computer Behavior" or something like that (there's probably a proper phrase/name for that). I'll explain it with following example: You know how sometimes if you're "good with computers" your relatives or friends might ask you to help with some application? That's where "Understanding of Computer Behavior" helps. You don't have to know every single application - and you can't, but by knowing fundamentals of computer behavior you can deduce what you need to do to accomplish required task. Maybe that's not even a separate ability, but good old logic?
