Support 3rd Party Push Notification Services such as Pushy
Google Play Services and GCM is blocked in China. This means that users that are not on VPN cannot get push notifications. The only known workarounds that I know of are using a 3rd party Push Notification service such as Baidu (http://push.baidu.com/doc/android/api) or Pushy (https://pushy.me/) or to run your own push notification service. I wish I didn't have to make this suggestion, but MatterMost is severely crippled by this and I dont see the geopolitics changing anytime soon.

Prevent non-admin users to rename channels
I'm aware of your business model and I'm fine with an advanced permissions system in the paid edition. I'm also aware that you carefully thought through the channel management for basic users (see https://github.com/mattermost/platform/issues/1764) and think it's a good way of approaching things.
But please, consider removing the ability for every one to rename channels. This is not useful, doesn't really make sense and more importantly leaves the ability for anyone to ruin a setup (prank or sabotage). It also gives a feeling of totally uncontrolled environment for these users.
This small feature makes me question the entire usage…

Android App: Support Gitlab double auth
Actually having a mattermost instance connected to gitlab that use omniauth providers (in my case saml, github and google) is not compatible with the android client.
As it's working on IOS, I suggest that you evolve the android client to make it compatible.
From what I observe, the saml token is being truncated

Sending emails to Mattermost
Like this in Slack
https://get.slack.help/hc/en-us/articles/206819278-Sending-emails-to-SlackThere is a workaround with Mattermail, but it means for each channel I need to create an email (alias) which is cumbersome.

view or copy source of a message
It would be really useful to reuse markdown messages.
Currently, Users can see raw message only when markdown is disabled.
And they can only copy their own messages.30 votes -
Allow Team Admins to see statistics for their Team
Currently only System Admins can see individual team statistics information but it would be helpful to allow team admins to see their own team's statistics.

Create a wizz button, like the old MSN chat
Like the old school MSN chat, it will be nice to add a wizz button or slash command or something else ... ?, meaning we need you to pay more attention to our post, that could be triggered a move on the windows for desktop app, and/or a new notification message.

Give an option to make team invite links one-time-use
Give an option to make team invite links one-time-use. Reusable invite links (especially ones that aren't auto-regenerated at any point) leaves too much opportunity for unauthorized signups

Disable highlighting of own messages
When chatting, the own messages are currently highlighted (grey background) which is a little bit confusing in my opinion. It would be create to either disable that, turn it the other way around or make it configurable

List the 10 most recent channels/users in the Switch Channels view
Without typing anything, one should be able to select a previous user or channel from the Switch Channels view (Command+K). They should also be listed in chronological order (from most to least recent)

Team specific position
Sometimes we don't have the same position in different team. Maybe it would be interesting to be able to have different position depending on the team, and not one position per account.

Unread posts in the API
I want to use the API to check if I have unread posts, but it doesn't seem the API contains such a counter. It contains a
msg_countand amention_cout, but not the counter I want.
There is still a possible hack:
For each channel in a team:
* Get the timestamp of the last visit
* Get the posts created after that timestamp
* Count them
Besides the fact that it's insanely complex compared to a simple yet handy counter in the API, it involves that we have to fetch the content of all the unread posts, which…23 votes -
Let admins allow anonymous posts / anonymous channels
A setting that allows users to make anonymous posts. Or that forces all posts in a given channel to be anonymous.
On a trusted server, this gives users a safe place to make anonymous statements.
Similar to the "Anonymous posting" feature of Discourse: https://www.discourse.org/about/
Enable anonymous posting mode and your users can easily switch to anonymous mode to post about controversial, dangerous, or political issues without fear.

Add notification replies for wearables
Currently, whenever a mobile notification is received, it displays the message in the notification, but accessing the notification from a wearable (Android Wear, Tizen, Pebble, etc.) only gives the option to show on phone, with no choice to reply to the message from the notification. It would be nice to have notification replies so that people with wearables can respond to messages quickly without needing to pull out their phone.

Preinstalled "matter-bot"
I´m just stealing the idea from slack ;)
I would like to see a simple bot that I can configure much like the "Slack Bot" (https://get.slack.help/hc/en-us/articles/202026038-Slackbot-your-assistant-notepad-programmable-bot)
This is a great and simple way to get started with bots!
