It was mentioned in both Joel’s Firespark interview and today’s Livestream, that fixes are being baked into the upcoming updates, but I can definitely see what you mean, as I want for the same. The game is great and has a lot to offer, but needs more polish (although it has gotten better).
My personal wish list would be an AI Overhaul for NPC’s so that they do their correct duties and add slightly more functionality. That task would be considered bug fixing on an order big enough to account for a major patch. I know Funcom’s team needs to keep all branches busy, so the art team could work on more character customization at creation. The latter is simple but would add a great level of polish when packaged with the former.
