The ability to use OR in the context!
Creating profiles that basicly do the same thing can take up alot of space. So I would like a way to put a OR in the context. Such as wifi connected OR Bluetooth connected do this or that.
Or maybe even something in the task such as a if statement have a OR statement. I know there kind of is but would like to have that option alone in Tasker.

don't check "Min Activate Signal Level" only when activating the WiFi near
According to the documentation:
http://tasker.dinglisch.net/userguide/en/help/sh_wifi_near.html
Min Activate Signal Level: the minimum signal strength to activate the context. It's ignored once the context is active.
I think this is bad design. It should be checked along with any other possible causes to trigger or not the event. Otherwise it's not possible to choose to activate a task only as long as the condition is true - alias, as long as the device is at a certain range from an AP - and to stop when that is not the case any longer.
Thanks for caring

Scene "Create Element" Currently Doesn't Allow Actions
Currently when using the "Create Element" action to add an element to an existing scene - there's no way/place to put any Actions for Tap or Long Tap, etc.
For example the first element type listed in the drop-down menu of "Create Element" is "Button". However it will be a button that does nothing because there's no place to specify the Actions for it ;)

Manuel focus for the « take picture »
On my previous phone (moto G3), when I set infinity focus on “Take picture” that work really great. But on lot of new phone I tested, infinity focus mode on the take picture feature make blurry photos.
After some search I undertending that the range on the focus is no limear. So for exemple if we define the begin of the focus range at 0 and the end at 1000 : 0 focus on a medium point, 250 on infinity and 1000 on the nearest point.
So it will be very useful to have a manual focus paramètre where we

Edit manifest of Kid App
I'd like to be able to edit the manifest of exported Kid Apps. This way I could remove permissions I don't want Tasker to request or add intents.
I used to use the Notification clicked event in my apps but had to stop using it because Tasker would add the accessibility service permission to my app and there is nothing I can do about it. I don't need nor want this permission because I only read notification clicked events of notifications put up by my app. I was hoping there'd be a solution in time when the accessibility service permission

It would be cool to use it in Material Design scenes to make it trully MD.

improve file system explorer for file/dir selection or allow user to use a third party one
Its hard to read and not very useful especially for low vision person. If possible find a solution for:
- Icons, font are too small,
- colors not well choosen,
- no preview for pictures,
- no sorting or searching option
- no ability to choose number of rows/columns or setting view as a list.
Or allow user to choose favourite file explorer

Create a Tasker Clipboard Manager
This would be a huge help in editing. It would act like one of the many clipboard apps except it would contain tasker actions. So you could make folders to keep all of your commonly used actions and of course have access to recently cut actions. You could also include the other feature request and have the ability to save and paste just the "IF" parameter of a action.

Better documentation on back up
Currently there is no help text "anywhere" for the correct method to back up data for install on new device. Both the android back up and Tasker's back up should have some "Very Clear" help text on how to get your Tasker data to a new device or just save it for a fresh install on the current device. It should be noted what is and is not backed up with each method. IE currently global variables and all saved projects, profiles, tasks, scenes in there respective folders are not saved in the Tasker Back up. I do not know

Support Advanced Messaging (RCS)
Newer Android phones have "Advanced Messaging" which isn't recognized as SMS or MMS messages so Tasker is not able to capture or react to these events. Would like to have Tasker support this new message type. Samsung Galaxy S8 and S9 phones on ATT in US support this feature. See ATT info here: https://www.att.com/esupport/article.html#!/wireless/KM1062086
See more info here from other Tasker users: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/tasker/rcs%7Csort:date/tasker/4IRssi2DWO4/AH3a9a-CAwAJ

Change Scenes Seekbar to Material Design
Most elements in scenes have been updated to Material Design, but the seekbar has been left out and its feelings are you. Please update the seekbar to match MD and the rest of the scene elements. Thanks!

New Global Variable %SCENES to List All Scenes Created (visible or not)
Right now there's variables for current Tasks running (%TRUN) as well as Profiles Active (%PACTIVE), Profiles Enabled (PENABLED), etc.
However - there's no Global Variable that contains a list of all Scenes currently 'created' - meaning they're active, whether showing or not.
So I am putting forth a request for a new Glboal Vairable %SCENES to contain the name of all active Tasker Scenes. Then using any of the names in this list a "Query Scene" action can be run to ascertain if it is visible, hidden, etc.

Ability to show maximum-width Task Names when adding Tasks to a Profile
Right now when a device is in Portrait mode and a Task needs to be added to a Profile - the menu that pops up truncates Task names since the menu is only maybe half the screen width.
There should be an option to have that menu extend the full width of the screen so the most characters as possible of the Task name can be displayed.
Right now Tasker just randomly cuts characters and replaces them with "..."

Event that fires wifi is turned off
Event that fires wifi is turned off.
When I'm just out of range on wifi so that no data can be transmitted but the phone still thinks im connected, I often turn the wifi off but then I forget to turn it back on.
With this I could create a task that would detect the turn off then wait 30 minutes and turn it back on again.

Automate XML backup
A way to automatically export certain Project/Task/Scenes as XML to SD to allow for custom backup to cloud/FTP.
The amount of times I've lost useful, complicated projects because my tasker backups are out of date is painful :(

Option to disable Display Off Monitoring
At the moment tasker only allows to increase the display off monitoring interval to 9999 seconds (~2,8h). I'd like to disable it entirely or better yet take FULL control which profiles are allowed to wake the device and which aren't.
Background: I've got an exported kid app which is supposed to wake the device at predefined times. This is absolutely critical. There isn't anything else that should be done, if the user isn't actively using the device. Now Doze works like this: if an app wakes the device, it's blocked for another 9 minutes from waking the device again. If
