Since you are already accessing this newsgroup via the web interface, there
is an option to post a suggestion under NEW.
To better serve MS development team, I would recommend that you phrase
exactly what you think the next version should contain, why it would help
you and others, and how it could be incorporated.
Do not expect an MS response, but you may get a few suggestions from other
folks on how to make this happen (macro/add-ins). I have it on good
authority that they do read these.
