If the future of Drupal features (as perceived in March) is moving along nicely, what's the next big thing for Features?
Features is part of the answer to one of Drupal's biggest headaches - what to do with all that loose site building and customization that happens on every project. Features is part of the answer to making stronger, better install profiles and targeted distributions of Drupal. And features is part of the answer to making Drupal more task oriented and less daunting to our users.

Perhaps the access control section of the Drupal UI could be redesigned to allow a few extra things;
1) group access control by like modules (see projects/modules) groups
2) Add a 'rollup/collapse' feature to groups, to allow more visibility to the modules lower down the list.

I've left tagging open to all Flickr users, so feel free to 'People tag' any of the people in the tag cloud!
Well... it's no longer a wall of text....
See early patches on drupal.org/node/475596 for more context.
This is the call stack from top to bottom when an individual Drupal node is loaded -- focuses only on the views_playlist.module functions that are called. The debug_print_backtrace(); php command was placed at the beginning of each function, and then a node was loaded.
I then did a view source, and then did some text replacements to get rid of extra line breaks, and place two line breaks at the beginning on a new stack trace (i.e. with each instance of #0).
These are the text replacements I did in Microsoft Word
REPLACE ^p# WITH TEMPTEXTFLAG#
REPLACE ^p WITH ""
REPLACE TEMPTEXTFLAG# WITH ^p#
REPLACE ^p#0 WITH ^p^p#0
REPLACE "called at " with ^t
I could then import the data into MicroSoft Excel.
I then
A1 = 1 and in A2 =
=IF(E2="",A1+1,A1)
B1 = 0 and B2 =
=IF(E2="",-1,B1+1)
That gave columns that looked like
1 0
1 1
1 2
1 3
1 3
I copied column A & B and then did a paste by value via "Paste Special..." I selected columns A through D, and sorted first by Column A (ascending), and then Column B (descending) This showed the chronological order in which the functions were called.
I then copied the cell values from the excel spread sheet into omnigraffle pro where the were treated as a single object. I had to paste multiple sections and group them together so that I could copy it, and then paste it into Preview. Once it was in preview, then I could export it as a PNG and then upload it here.
I'm a geek.

Suggestion #1
Allow modules to be grouped together by categories in the same way as they are on the main Drupal site.
Suggestion #2
Also allow the categories of modules to be expanded or collapsed using the new jQuery library.
Suggestion #3
Change the way admin/modules illustrates the heirarchy (parent/child) relationships between modules. for example;
- Voting API parent
-- Simple Vote child
This would help illustrate the relationships of complex modules like E-Commerce which are a set of related modules.
