In case you have some features you would like us to include, please search 
bugzilla for the list of (both opened and closed) RFEs. If you don't find the 
RFE in the list, feel free to open a request so we can track what people 
actually want.

Your other option is to use the form to let us know what are you missing and 
what is your use case (don't forget to include the second part, that's 
actually the more important one).
