Based on what I've been reading here, and my own experience, I would guess that the two most popular addtions to VW would be these:
1) OLE capability, allowing us to embed linked Excel and Work files into VW. This would take care of all the complaints about text editing. If we could export Worksheet data to an Excel file, perhaps that would take care of all the Worksheet formatting problems people experience.
2) Automated generation of 2D sections from a 3D model. This would update the outline of all solid objects in a saved section view whenever the model is changed. All you need to do is come up with some algorithms that can find the surface, or outline, of all solid objects cut by the section plane. I think this is the easiest of the many requests for 2D-3D interactivity you have received. If it works seamlessly, and we can assign classes with line weights to the elements of the original section that would be preseved on update, it would be a very exciting and time-saving capability.
