FWIW this is the stuff I wonder about.

The newly introduced feature of "Automation Lists", how do you see it evolving?

I'd like for it to have more Sigil commands exposed such as being able to rename and add files (A suggestion for the User Guide would be a section on valid parameters for the commands). Use of variables as parameters if not already possible should be welcome.

A minor petition, many times I end up with 20 xhtml tabs and 1 style sheet -lost somewhere- open. I can close "All other tabs" but I would like to have another option of closing "All other XHTML" tabs so I can keep the tab I am working on and don't lose the style sheet.

Saved Searches, if you run a search from the top of a group it will stop in the first subentry that has a match and it won't move forward unless you do the replacement. I'd like it to continue with the rest of matches in all the entries.

Code Folding. I'd like to be able to close/hide entire sections of the code, so I can get a clearer view of the structure of the page. Ideally I'd like to be able to also basically hide all text and have a "tag-only" view. I believe that would help me understand the pattern of usage of CSS classes and help refine any S&R.
