    I've just done the R5.5 feedback questionnaire and it got me thinking. I really appreciate the usability improvements NI has made to R5.5, I especially like the ability to order ports numerically now!
    However I think there is still much left to be desired to make programming less of a chore in Reaktor, here are several usability improvements I would like to see in the final version of 5.5, or even 5.5.2 or whatever:

    1. Option to auto-connect up ports with matching names on selected objects.
    2. When cmd+dragging a wire to a macro to create a new port, it should automatically name the new port after the port it is being connected from.
    3. Ability to make core stay in debug mode whilst delving in and out of core structures.
    4. Ghost/Shadow Macros.

    I'd also like to see:
    -Routable/Switchable OBC paths. (Or failing that a higher array size limit)
    -Event outputs on Audio Core Cells.
    -A way to load samples directly into core arrays. Perhaps some sort of Core 'Global Array' module, which would allow an array to be accessed from all core cells, aswell as allow core access to a sample lookups or sample maps sample data?

    I put these in the comments or suggestions section, just wondering if NI are planning on implementing any of these or similar features and if anyone else has any more ideas?
