So, what features is everyone most looking forward to in v5? Personally, I'm looking at the templating system and plugin system, solely because they make my life a lot easier to help you guys.  However, things like user tagging and multi-quote are also nice to have built in.

I am looking forward to a lot, but I am also not looking forward to stuff like running out of keys or plugin space I can't imagine running out of plugin space. As for keys, a forum has 10 keys. It'd be pretty difficult to actually use 10 keys and not have codes interfere or just be...stupid.

On the contrary, lots of codes can store settings (what's often going to be put in plugins) in localStorage still and be fine.

I think really the most useful keys are the super user keys (of which I believe you only get 2 right?). I can definitely see you running out of those. I can also see the bigger forums going over 40 plugins especially since you may have to install a plugin to do a different thing on a different theme or board. Sure, people can get better in how they code the plugins, but there are ways  Chris, is there a way for multiple plugins to use the same key?

Typically if it's different per template, it probably belongs in templates and not as a plugin. And yep. Plugins should share keys with the same name automatically, I thought. The other solution is a generic library that they all inherit (as a plugin) and have the key in that plugin.

You just have to be careful when sharing to make sure the codes don't mess with each others data.... Ideally you prefix it with something of your code. If you want to share a plugin key, then you should prefix it with maybe your username. So my keys would be "cddude229_something_key"
