There are a lot of things, including this, that I would have liked to get in for 6 but we were pushing the envelope on getting the beta out in a timely fashion.
What I really think we need to do is find out what features everyone would like to see the most. I've asked this before and it normally ends up being a huge hodge-podge of requests, so maybe this next time each person can suggest one feature which would make it a little easier to sort through. There is just so much that gets requested it's sometimes hard to prioritize what gets worked on.
