A wish list is not a bug. Perhaps, Apple can put up a website for wish list. It will be some kind of to-do list. New comers or people who is about to switch to, for example, xcode, will have an idea of what is lacking and be aware of some pitfalls (I wouldn't call it pitfalls for some cases).
When a wish has been fulfilled, Apple can strike out that wish item. Or some kind of status can be assigned to every items. For example, "Pending", "TBD", "In Progress", "Done" and etc.
I will see if I have some time in this evening or tonight so that I can put up a quick demo wish list at my site. Then everyone can take a look and decide what is the best method to take care of this kind of post.
If anyone has more wish list, do feel free to email directly to me (using the contact form at my website ( http://adrianhoe.net/) or to this list.
I have a queue of 231 feature requests and 615 enhancement requests from Apple developers, sorted by component, timestamped with origination date, correlated with the number of similar requests, fully documented, reproduceable by my testing department, and with a ready-made feedback mechanism to inform the originator when it's been fixed.
Let me clarify Matt's original message: He asked what you intended to get out of the developer conference in terms of information about our tools. That's very interesting to us right now as we're tuning the content of the presentations as we speak, and we can deliver the kind of information you're asking for.
The time to influence product content is every day, and this forum, xcode-feedback, and bugreporter do an excellent job of it. I really see no reason to set up a parallel system, as the odds that Apple engineers will pay it enough attention to make it worth your time is small, and it will probably take several years for it to amass the number, breadth, and quality of suggestions we have already received.
