I hate to hassle all of you who are enthusiastic and have great 
suggestions.  But it would be far more helpful if you would each put in 
bug/enhancement requests here, one per bug/feature:

http://www.mathworks.com/support/service_request/login_servicerequests.h
tml?targetURL=/support/service_requests/contact_support.do

We do keep track of the frequency of reported issues and that can figure 
into decisions on what to work on.
