First of all, English isnt my first language so I might not make sense in every sentences, keep that in mind :) ***
I want to talk about backlog, gamelog, chatlog and ''dm screen''
I know that a lot depend on the backlog, that being said when I watch the dev update while not being able to tell us ETA they dont show us a clear path of what is being made.
Oh let me talk about my setup because I know it differ from other DM so my point of view might not be the same on whats important or not :)
We use, Discord / Avrae and DnD Beyond and I dont use maps for combat, just to show where players are in general. And as much as I love avrae and its creator dropping it to have discord in the background to only have the camera and voice chat would be nice. I jtse thinking of real estate on my monitor.
Gamelog, Having a history or at least a download button of the log at the end of each session would be nice so I can clear it whenever I want.
Being able to lock it for real not just the popup window or maybe have it pop out in his own window would nice.
Make the dice result go over the dice so we dont have to wait for the dices to disapear or maybe have the option not to have dice rolling and result faster ?
When players roll their attack have the option to roll the damage automatically.
When player throws powers and spells at me having something like Avrae that tells me what save to roll with the DC.
Chatlog, Is there a will to implement such a thing ? I know most people use discord, roll20 etc, but having it directly in beyond is one less window open for me and for DM with multiple one open it would be nice.
DM screen, I have attached a layout that I would find interesting to use, and I know everyone want different things but for the base it would be nice. Everything would be place in the campaign page with tabs to switch quickly,
I came up with three main layouts, DM screen, encounter manager and shortcut to rules and other pages within beyond.
In these layout we could have other tabs like in the exemple we have a general view of players stats but we could access to a more infomative tabs on one of the player.
I dont want to write a novel so I going to end this here but I do think that those features would be nice to have.

EDIT, the purple square in the image would be collapsable and the green one would be switchable with tabs
