"It is possible to run multiple Plone sites within a single Zope instance while keeping each Plone site in its own Data.fs file. Having the sites in their own Data.fs file allows you to easily backup, delete, or relocate individual Plone sites even when you are running multiple sites in the same instance. This can be accomplished using ZODB Mount Points."

The idea is to have a single view (like the one you use for browsing contents), where you can specify la folder permissions for more than one folder, where it is required the same permissions in all the folders, for the same users. For example I own a parent folder with view only permissions for 5 people. Then under this I have one folder for each month of the year and I want to specify permissions in those 12 folders for those 5 people for them to be able to add and edit.

(like Afresko for example (http://bitnami.org/stack/alfresco))

"It could be very helpful to make TinyMCE behave as Kupu for the list of Linkable Objects (at <site root>/@@tinymce-controlpanel page, 'Resources Types' tab), that is to let the user choose them in a drop down list: for the moment, the user has to write them, which is painful and subject to error as he may not know the internal content type's name of the object."

It would be nice that in the folder_contents view, you can see what objects are actually on the clipboard. Right now, the only thing you can see is that there is a paste button. There were several times that I wanted to know what was actually on the cliboard. (per https://dev.plone.org/ticket/1942)

The batch size (10) is hard coded and fixed in the User Management page(s). Personally I'd like to be able to blow that batch size out to whatever I want (100!) - how about making it a property? Same with the group management page...

(per https://dev.plone.org/ticket/2732)

It should be possible to install new Plone products within Plone interface without editing buildout.cfg.
(The reality is that drupal, joomla, wordpress, typo3 have this option). Auto check for updates.

Add big red bar with some text to Plone Control Panel if security hotfixes are not installed.

Now (Plone <= 4.1)xy@a.eu and XY@a.eu are two different users.

Currently all required CSS and JavaScript files are loaded _eagerly_ by Plone: all of them are in the head. Several files (e.g. JavaScript) aren't needed on particular pages, yet they're loaded. This requires additional bandwidth as well as loading time.

Plone has a openId authentication plugin.

I would like to see an OAuth authentication plugin to be able to log in with Facebook, Twitter and other OAuth providers.

When displaying errors in Plone link to one landing page on Plone.org with a list of common ressources to scan for the displayed error. Check if passing over some "safe" arguments to provide (pre) filtering of the displayed results for convenience.

Scan for any add ons or parts of the software, that display an obvious
waiting of the system for missing useraction or update and display
them as a list by default or via a link in the traceback page until finished

I.e. a display like the current update suggestion message for Plone
itsself.

3rd Party Updates installed by buildout that need migrations should be
able to hold a "untouched" flag like the "safe download" database in
MacOSX until the necessary migrations are finished. The Quickinstaller
still provides this in a more general form, but there are some cases
where we need more info at the right place saving support time. Maybe
I am overseeing something that is already present.

I was just thinking: there is no "help menu" from within plone.

Could this be a sane idea ?
1) A product that adds a "how to" action (in portal siteactions")
2) This "drags in the how tos from some webpage or wiki

The admin should have a way to put a system wide message about the maintenance and put the site to a ready-only mode (without restarting Zope).

At the moment many Plone 4 products are not visible when you search Plone.org downloads. This is because they are posted in PyPi, and either never posted in Plone.org or the releases are not posted in Plone.org. I propose that pypi trove classifiers be extended to include plone release (plone3/plone4) and they include the categorisation in plone (theme, storage etc). Then plone.org should suck data from pypi to find downloads.
