Already signed up for the windows Beta ...  but waiting for my request to be approved (can you give it a nudge perhaps?)

For years I have been hoping that Evernote would concentrate on fixing the poor editing features and stop introducing new features that nobody asked for and strange product partnerships (Post-it notes, messenger bags, etc). Finally, it seems as though it might just happen!

• the Wodpress (CKEditor?) editor for blog posts
• Marxico, "the missing markdown editor for Evernote" which allows me to write markdown in a split screen view, and create beautiful notes with a consistent style and appearance.
• the editor in this forum

I really think that you need to look at implementing a way for users to suggest and vote on product features. This would provide you with metrics on how your user-base feel about particular features.

It's important to note however that you MUST feedback on the suggestions. Perhaps it would be a good idea to set a threshold at which you guarantee more detailed feedback. E.g. if a feature gets more than 5,000 votes then a response of more than 100 words is guaranteed. Even if it's a response explaining why a feature won't be implemented, it will show respect for your users and rebuild the trust that is lacking.

The most important features that I would like to see in a new improved editor are fairly standard features. These are features I would use every single day.

• Better image handling. I can't believe I can't resize an image, let alone choose how text flows around it
• Better table support. Controlling borders, margins and padding... background and foreground colours and setting column sizes.
• Styles. Seriously, this would be the biggest change for me. I like my notes to look consistent. I like to format code in a particular colour and font. I like to have headings of different sizes.
