support Rocky Linux
Rocky Linux is bug-for-bug compatible with already supported OS (RHEL, and by extension since AlmaLinux makes the same claim - that too).
However, unlike RHEL and AlmaLinux, Rocky has broad industry support sponsored by Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Fastly etc. so I would like to see Plesk officially add support for Rocky.

Allow logins to WordPress while "maintenance" mode is engaged.
Imagine being able to perform actual maintenance, when "maintenance mode" is engaged... Instead, actual maintenance can only be done with a 3rd party extension. Or, consider changing the labeling of "maintenance mode" to "WordPress On/Off" since engaging maintenance mode prevents actual maintenance, prevents logging in, and just shuts down the site.
1 voteThis ability was added to WordPress Toolkit v5.7. You can turn it off in maintenance mode settings, if you wish so.

Ability to add MX DNS record with a custom priority from Plesk GUI
Currently, MX record the dropdown priority options are available at an interval of "5".
However, Google Mail and G-Suite require to create MX-record with a priority 1, which is not available in Plesk.
There is similar request here https://talk.plesk.com/threads/google-mail-dns-wont-validate-unless-mx-priority-is-1.357702/
Please, add ability to set other MX priorities in Plesk interface.
20 votesThis functionality was added in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.30. G Suite can now be set up with the Plesk DNS service because it is now possible to set an MX priority value to 1 in the Plesk interface. Let us know if you have any feedback.

Mod Security v3.x.x (aka libmodsecurity) for NGINX and Apache
Hi,
Please consider implementing Mod Security v3.x.x (aka libmodsecurity) for NGINX and Apache in the next Plesk update.
At the moment any Plesk user if he wants to use Mod Security (official version supported by Plesk) is forced to use it as a web server:
- Apache
or
- Apache + NGINX
Any Plesk user who wants to use only NGINX as a web server and without using Apache at the moment cannot use Mod Security because Plesk does not currently support it for NGINX exclusively web servers.
Here are some of the advantages of Mod Security v3.x.x (aka libmodsecurity and these…

Add the possibility to define which theme will be set by default after the WordPress installation
For example when we add the required theme into the WordPress set, after the installation the "Twenty Twenty" theme will be set as default.
Please add the possibility to define which theme will be set by default after the WordPress installation as via the CLI method as via Plesk GUI.
The CLI method is important here because some customers use only this method for a WordPress installation.
6 votesWe have released this feature in WPT 5.2 update. You can use GUI or CLI to choose a theme that should be activated upon the installation of a set.
CLI command example: plesk ext wp-toolkit —sets -operation activate-theme -set-id ID -theme-id THEME_ID
If you’re using GUI, go to Sets and click on “+ Add Themes” button next to the corresponding theme.Let us know on our forum (talk.plesk.com) if you encounter any issues.
