Ability to Execute Tests from Visual Studio Code
If we were able to run tests from Visual Studio Code (and from some command line application - like we can build using alc.exe) it would make a massive improvement to the efficiency of development (and probably the uptake in writing and running tests). This presupposes that you have the releva...

Allow Sorting Property on Lists
It would be very useful to be able to define if a specific column can be sorted or not. In case a list contains flowfields (e.g. Amount on Customer Ledger Entries), the user can choose to sort the list producing heavy workloads on the SQL server. An AllowSort property can solve the issue mainta...
Enable specifying objects by name in properties like SourceTableView, CalcFormula, etc.

"Go to definition" more than once when you are in the base App
