tristaanogre I see your point but this kind of feedback is unquantified and may not represent the views of users as a whole. I think there should be more visibility on feature requests e.g. average age, number created vs number resolved, number of requests that have changed status etc.
The top two requests both relate to improvements to the NameMappings where AFAIK there is not currently a work around, they have been raised since 1H 2015 and seem to have been put into the 'too hard basket'. Even as the two two ideas - perhaps having only 56 and 58 kudos votes gives the impression that they are not really needed by users but I would guess that the vast majority of TestComplete users have never used the Smartbear Community, let alone reviewed the feature requests section. If there were an alternative way to achieve the feature request ideas easily then I would not be so worried about them but I don't believe there is.
I totally appreciate that there is limited dev resources and we shouldn't be encouraging custom workflows within the tool but IMO there are some very valid ideas with high votes that have been around for a long time and are not being considered.
Actually, based upon what was said at Connect, those two items are being worked on... but, as you noted, they are tricky. Again, just because it has the most amount of Kudos does not mean it's going to be completed first.

Like mentioned earlier.... I think it would adorn Smartbear if they provide proper follow up on the feature requests. They want us to provide feedback.. then, reward us for that! How? By providing updates frequently. Not only new features but also improvements, bug fixes, etc!
It's for their own good that the product keeps well respected by their users, and it will create flow and momentum for Smartbear product users and Smartbear developers. Last but not least it's modern to involve end users in product development and reward them for it.

Well we got TanyaYatskovska's gingerbread at the user conference. That was a great reward!
