What's wrong with the topic based requests?
- Good feature requests get lost
- Same feature is requested over and over
- '+1 replies' are not tracked - hard to see the real demand
What could it be?
- Structured requests
- No duplicates
- Devs can pick something that is not only something that they would like themselves but that they know of a lot of people want/appreciate
- Tracked upvotes (downvotes)
- Trash bad requests/unrelated/duplicates
Example: something like uservoice.com (not affiliated) but a free variant - or maybe a proven MyBB plugin
