I agree, I'd be interested in this as well. Based on the replies you're getting, I'd also like to point out that I'm tired of this trend in discussions:
Person A states their preferences regarding a product and says that they wish that the company would offer certain options. Person A says that they would be more likely to buy (or would only buy) the product with those options available. Nowhere is it demanded that the company implement these options, but person A has very clearly indicated their preferences.
Persons B, C, and D then immediately come out of the woodwork to shut down the discussion:
* Person B explains why nobody else would be interested in the options that person A has asked for. Person A is a "niche" user and their opinions are unimportant.
* Person C characterizes person A as "unreasonable" or "entitled" and explains why no company in their right mind would want person A as a customer.
* Person D counters person A's statement by explaining that the company can produce any product they want to, and that they don't have to listen to person A's request. It's a private company, etc, etc. (Note that nowhere did person A imply that the company had to listen to their request.)
For real-world examples of this phenomenon, see any thread regarding (in particular) Apple, Mozilla, or Tesla.
