Obvious stuff; Undo, preferably undo levels. Cut and paste. A little less obvious; Fix the legacy code that creates new names for instanced objects "on the fly." That one change -- using existing internal names -- would fix ALL cross-talk issues, including permitting "good" crosstalk (aka superconforming clothing) to work again. This is probably buried very deeply tho, back in version 2 code or even earlier, so it could be a real pain to get it out. More advanced; We talk about improving renders, and that's a good thing. But the name of the program is Poser. It's prime function is posing of figures. Where are the advances in that art? Is IK and forward kinematics really the best we can come up with? What happened to genetic algorithms, joint weighting, rag-doll physics, flocking behavior, AI animation, animation blending...?
