And even when we do plan to add something eventually, I prefer to say things like 'we might look to add this in the future, but we also might not.' just because people invariably interpret phrases like 'we're planning to add this in the future' as 'it'll be in Pixelmator Pro within the next 6 months'. And while we do read pretty much every request on almost every major platform and take them into account (and add them to our rather extensive feature request list), we do have to prioritise things and this is where disagreements begin. Just kidding! We aren't at all that cruel and the truth is this is by no means a simple feature to do and do well.
