"A WIP forum is a good solution...a Product Development forum specifically for merchants to get feedback on their products and solicit opinions and ideas is probably better." I like this idea. If you want to see (and comment on) things that are under developent, you go to the New Product Development forum, if they want to see what's recently available and/or what's on sale you go to the Product Showcase forum... works for me.
