Better crypto support in platform-agnostic Swift is definitely #1 on my wishlist. On macOS/iOS you have Apple's libraries to provide cryptographic support. However, for server-side Swift running on Linux, your options are pretty much reduced to wrappers around OpenSSL. I'd love to see more formal cryptographic and security libraries for Swift. While Java's JCE definitely has its flaws from a design perspective, something along those lines for Swift would greatly enhance its viability for enterprise software, or other applications where security is of paramount concern.
