Hi Todd I think the mailing list is a good tool for talking about potential new features. If there is some functionality that someone wants then having a discussion about it on the mailing list helps to find others from the community with the same or similar requirements.
Do you already have something in mind? If so then please feel free to start a discussion thread on this list about the functionality you are looking for. (Sometimes it might already exist but not everyone knows about it :-). On the survey side, I've run a few community surveys in the past so I'd be interested to hear your ideas about a potential user base one and the type of information it could collect. I will start a discussion thread about the survey, so please feel free to add your comments and feedback.
