I don't really get involved is the wl because of that reason -
there needs to be a more practical way than wishing hoping waiting for years in some cases that things just might be implemented - the user needs a bigger voice and more power as they are the ones that purchase year after year and should have a say where the money is spent - we are grown men n women here making wishes lol ! - we don't need to be little kids being told to close your eyes and make a wish and Daddy might give us a big surprise. There needs to be a big change in how things are done - this is a good year for it!
As stated before - rather than a "wish" list it might be better with a donation bin where we all chip in to get things done - a crowd of users funding fixes n features.
But YES the user needs to know he is participating in it.
That Band in a Box vst you suggested even if they don't or can't get around to it, if they finally fix that damn vst sync they could have a vst version like FL Studio then band in a box will sync and play along with your daw while you generate a track/s to fit to the daw tracks then just drag out into the daw. And that re-wire vst will WORK syncing band in a box real band to other re-wire daw's
