Add quote reply in addition to collapsed threads
Currently, in order to reply to someone a few messages back, you hit the reply button and it goes into a thread. Alternatively, Mattermost could add a quote button on messages next to the reply button. When you click quote button it should work like reply in modern messengers with text of the message or part of it and name of the creator of the message.
Threads are useful, but creating them for replying to paticular messages can be a bit of an overkill.37 votesLabel and status updated.

Change mmctl user to also allows changing the firstname / lastname (aka fullname) as well as the alias
When using MM with auth providers, in most cases, its not possible to change the user data once a user has been created.
It would be nice to be able to use
mmctl user name --firstname Igmar --lastname Palsenberg igmar
from the cli.
If we agree, I'll do a PR for the code changes.

Display Nickname or Full Name Based on Settings
I configured nicknamefullname: true, but the username is still displayed while drafting a chat. This is not user-friendly.
The same problem also occurs when full_name: true is configured.https://docs.mattermost.com/configure/site-configuration-settings.html#teammate-name-display
I'm Japanese, and Japanese characters cannot be used in usernames. Therefore, displaying only the username is very troublesome for my organization.

allow the Late Time Warning to be disabled or modified
Not everyone works a regular schedule. Constantly being "warned" about messaging someone during their regular work hours could get really annoying. The ability to disable this, or to alter the time(s) that would incur a "warning" should be a relatively low LoE.

Add functionality to automatically add new users to a team
A lot of new users are unfamiliar with / confused by teams. So they don't select one, and then can't post anything, and an admin has to manually add them. There should be an easy way for all new users to be automatically added to a team.

Alt text for user-posted images
Users should be able to add alt text to their images. This is actually necessary to comply with accessibility legislation in Canada.

Read Receipts: Implement a visual indication for messages if and when they have been read by other users of the channel
Sometimes one's wondering if a post has already been read by other users. I could image that a member list of the channel pops up when one is selecting the read status from the particular post menu ("[..]").
In private chats, a sinple check sign (similar to whatsapp) could signalize if a message had beend read by your counterpart.1,221 votesWe’ve opened a design ticket to start exploring this feature: https://mattermost.atlassian.net/browse/MM-36529
This will need feasibility explorations given performance concerns on the server-side. As a result, we may start by only offering read receipts in Direct Messages and Group Messages that have a maximum of 8 users.
