Include channel creation and management restrictions in team edition
I know these features were left out of Team Edition to keep it simple, but these options are present in the config.json file.
Enabling this features from just the config.json file would keep the team edition ui simple, but give smaller teams the same ability to control the whims of their users

Add support for using channel_id in the URL instead of channel_handle
Right now you can link to a channel using the following URL
https://my-mattermost-server.com/teamname/channels/channel_handle
However, if the channel handle is changed, the link gets broken.
This feature proposal adds support for using channel_id the URL instead, which doesn't change. Example:

Image preview should honor exif orientation
Mattermost fetches images from a URL to that image, however it ignores the exif data. This results in the preview often being in the wrong orientation.

Offer an onboarding bot
An on-boarding bot helps new users to on-board into a work environment. In every channel a new team member enters the On-boarding Bot will send a message explaining the channel, what is done there, how the team member can get involved, whom to contact etc. This would help organizations and teams to work more efficiently.

Unread marker "time machine"
It would be nice to be able to "go back in time" when it comes to "unread posts". I have not studied in detail how MM keeps track of this, but I'm guessing a "last seen postId" or a "last seen postDate" or something similar. Anything greater than this is "unread". Anyway, what I would like to see is a way to "undo" or "go back in time" on nn unread states.
Say I login today, I have 33 unread/new messages. But I want to go back to the "unread count" I had the last time I logged in before…

Allow for bots to directly upload images
Bots are only able to post text messages to rooms, however, it would be convenient if bots were able to attach photos as a message to the room.
We would prefer if our bot didn't have to upload images to an accessible URL and then post that url to the room (and then only get a preview of an image), as this adds a few extra steps to viewing the image and requires our bot to be aware of when it is done uploading the image to the host and then finally post the link to the room.

100% Slack Compatible Webhooks
I would like Mattermost to be able to consume any Slack-compatible webhook. It is very frustrating that I have to build a tool to proxy webhooks from GitHub for example.

Set policy for password history
A companies security policy often has rules stating that a password may not be reused. To facilitate this many applications have a feature that allows the administrator to state how many passwords the application should remember until a password can be reused. Think, for example, a maximum of 10 password that the application must remember.

Delete user avatar from CLI
We need a way to delete an user avatar with the CLI tool.
Currently we delete the in data/users/ manually but it would be easier if we could do it by using the email instead of the ID.1 vote -

Automated configuration data for /slash command
How about allowing for a special parameter ?getslashinfo=1 or something return the various fields that need to be filled in in the Slash Command configuration.
Add a button "Fetch" to the right of the Request URL and if clicked, MM goes to retrieve Display Name, Description, Request Method, Autocomplete Hint and Autocomplete description fields.
Even if the user gets it back in the wrong language, it'll be easy to translate to the local language. Reponse username and icon should obviously not be allowed to be fetched like this, nor the trigger word.
A second parameter could be sent with getslashinfo=1,…

Switch the status color indicator to the background of the icon
User icons are okay now on the left side list but would it be even more clear to switch the icon color to white and change the background color for the status? Please check the link for a demo:

Add a config show cli command
For troubleshooting purposes it would be handy to have a
platform config show
command that lists the effective configuration values. Thus, overriding environment variables must be considered. At least from the wording ofplatform config validate
('The document is valid'), it seems that environment variables aren't considered.There could be filters to mangle the output, but
grep
is fine, imo.1 vote -

Allow setting to enable message sending through 'Return'
So I understand that in iOS version 3.3.0, there was a change to disable messages from being sent after pressing the 'Return' key.
My team is coming from WhatsApp so the default is to send a message using the 'Return' key.
I would suggest adding a configuration item that would allow users to make this change as it's really based on personal preference.
Would fix: https://github.com/mattermost/ios/issues/39
