First suggestion: the ability to show hidden content through a setting in the View menu (such as view hidden items). Unless I'm missing it, it's not an option unless you look it up through the DOM, but I'm awfully forgetful.

Use the Inspector pane Ed.

You will see a new "EYE" icon that shows what items are hidden. You can toggle hidden elements on/off by clicking on the "eye", or checking the box "Show X hidden items on this breakpoint".

Right. And that is awesome. But it would sometimes be easier to toggle all invisible items in the DOM and make them visible. And, preferably, either outline them in red or use some other method to alert me that these items would default to invisible when viewing in a browser.

Scott, I just saw what you were referring to with the checkbox. I get it now. Thanks.

Since the shopping cart has not been made responsive (will it ever?), would it be possible to combine features of the shopping cart with the e-commerce theme, so that it becomes a real shop with all the bells and whistles? I would suggest something like that.

Would it be possible (or is it already possible) to add the ability to create attributes for form elements, like placeholder & pattern? These don't already exist in the list of available attributes and when I try to add them as a custom attribute, I get a message that the attribute name is reserved.

Will we be able to get text shadow capabilities like RSD has?

Regarding the text shadow, I do see a button labeled Add Text Shadow for some elements, but not all. For example, there is no way that I can tell to add a text shadow to a list item, like you can in RSD.

In Design panel > Style, the Reset button is placed at the end of the 'State' line, giving the impression that clicking it will reset the styling for the whichever of the states (Regular, Hover etc.) is displayed in that line.

In fact the Reset button resets the styling for all the states, but only of the Type, Class or ID that is showing in the 'Apply to' box. To avoid misleading the unwary, I suggest that the Reset button be put at the end of the 'Apply to' line rather than at the end of the 'State' line.
