1) The "duplicate tab" feature is awesome, but even better would be if we were able to split the screen into 2 or 3 parts and display different parts of the document in them (this is available in many PDF reader on PC, including Acrobat).
That would be nice, but I wouldn't count on it. Frankly, I'm only hoping that we can still get the 1.4 update. I don't expect Sony to push more updates after that. Let alone such a major change.

3) Be able to follow a hyperlink in a document to another part of the document and then go back to where you came from (equivalent to Alt+LeftArrow in Acrobat).
That's already possible. Tap on a link to follow it (even hyperlinks to the web work) and click the page-indicator (bottom left) and choose "Go back to previous" page to return.

4) More pen and highlighter color options!
The 1.4 version has one more "thick" line style for both colors.

5) Improve handwriting in the "writing" speech bubble - it seems more jagged there than when I write directly onto the document of in a notebook.
In the document, the AntiAliasing sets in as soon as the pen is taken out of proximity. In the handwritten notes, the AA sets in when you Save the note but not later than after a certain delay (2 minutes or so) or a certain number of strokes (50 or so).

And how can I forward them to Sony for implementation?
SONY (US) is known not to give a damn about the customer's wishes and provide only by-the-manual customer support. That's because SONY US is tightly governed by the japanese HQ's policy with strict guidelines and little feedback. The most promising albeit not-promising-at-all way is probably to get in touch with SONY JP and get as-close to the actual devs as possible (or impossible, even). But as I said, I don't expect any more updates from SONY. Everything indicates that the DPT-S1 seems to be reaching its EOL.
