1. Warping fonts easily like Aldus Typetwister or Typstyler. Preset by user for easy re-use. 2. Valuable for better design.
Adobe already owns Typetwister when it bought Aldus. Just incorporate it into InDesign. Welcome back to 1990.

Disable external plugins from earlier versions when packaging files
I find that some files created with cs5.5/cs6 use external plugins that get embedded in CC 2019 and then cause them to crash when opened on another system without those plugins. Is there any way to disable the plugins at the package stage? That would ideal.

Global Text Edit Across Multiple File Instances
A way to update one Master File, that populates multiple files.
One product > multiple instances
By changing text on "1" it would update the same text in the same spot for the different instances "1a,1b,1c"
1 > 1a > 1b > 1c

Table of Contents - Limit to subject lines to Character Style, option
Currently, the TOC will display an entire paragraph of text based on the Paragraph Style. I've assigned a unique Character style to give distinction to the first two sentences of the paragraph using Nested Styles within the Paragraph Style.
In the attached example, you'll see that "Subject 1. Setup." has a distinct Character style, this is the only text that I want to appear in the TOC. Perhaps there's a way to accomplish this. But It would be nice to have the option to populate text based on Character Style only.

Make "Justify Text Next to an Object" work in all cases
As it stands, text wrapping around an object only responds to this preference (and justifies) when it wraps around the left and right sides of the object. It should work even if it only wraps around one side.

Table of Contents: Character Style Improvements
TOCs need to be able to do three different things with character styles that are included in text in a generated TOC:
- The Character Style stays present in the TOC (this is currently what InDesign does)
- The Character Style is stripped.
- The Character Style is mapped to another character style.
These settings should accessible in the Style: <stylename> section of the TOC options -- customizable for each paragraph style used to generate the TOC.
The most notable use for the mapping style is when the typeface between the TOC and the body text of the book differs, or when the…

File-size Preview
Seeing the estimated file-size preview prior to export taking place would be a huge benefit, when trying to hit a certain file size limit.
At least begin by allowing for file-size preview for files up to, say, 50mb? Then as time goes on, improve this feature.

Ability to assign a shortcut to [None] in the Character Styles window.
Because you sometimes want to REMOVE a character style and it would be very beneficial to be able to use a shortcut for that as well.

PDF tags are lost when placed in InDesign
When I place any PDF in Indesign (and this I do very often), which include pre-created accessible PDFs, the tags go away and the complete exported Pdf becomes inaccessible and tag-less.
The only tag that I get in the exported PDF is <Figure> tag.

MathML Support
We need to have InDesign to support MathML, this is much awaited feature, but not supporting in InDesign yet.
Currently we're using 3rd party plugins such as MathType, MathTools, PowerMath, etc. but not meeting our expectation, also high license cost than InDesign.
@ALL: Please support to include this feature in InDesign in the very near release.
