I know "we" in the dev community are always eager for improvement, better tooling and often specific features. Many non-dev folks will also sometimes express the need for certain functionality. But there's one factor that plays a big role in this i think: most people don't like it when somebody changes "their stuff", regardless of possible benefits. So once a product is well established, tweaking and changing it puts you at quite a risk of annoying or losing some of your aquired userbase, and further development therefore ensues much more prudently and slowly.
