Add Microsoft SQL Server PHP extensions to Plesk Linux
They can be disabled by default (and optionally be enabled in PHP Settings, 7.0-7.1 only). The drivers appear to be quite stable - I have successfully installed them in Plesk on Ubuntu 16.04 and CentOS 7.4.
This is especially interesting since SQL Server 2017 is available for Linux and Docker.
Once the extensions are installed/enabled, the follow-up request would be to allow me to add remote MS SQL databases in Plesk Linux (not limited to RDS - any remote MS SQL instance).

MySQL-Config default to innodb_file_per_table with datadir
Take some influence to MySQL-Konfiguration and always default to "innodbfileper_table= true" and "datadir=/var/lib/mysql/data".
Makes optimization of tables and space-reclaim with larger databases possible. Might be a problem of bootstapping but is worth the effort.

Make utf8mb4 default when backing up mysql databases
When i backup database with Plesk (either with Export/Import feature or with Backup Manager), it loses all characters outside Unicode BMP (all characters > 0xFFFF).
It's because mysqldump default charset is utf8, not utf8mb4.This should be changed, for example, if database contains at least one field with utf8mb4 charset - mysqldump should be run with --default-character-set=utf8mb4 option.
Settings in /etc/mysql/conf.d/mysqldump.cnf are not respected too, it works when i use mysqldump from command-line, but doesn't work when i export or backup db with plesk.

Add support for MySQL Governor for CloudLinux
Currently Plesk does not support MySQL Governor feature https://docs.cloudlinux.com/index.html?mysql_governor.html
and mapping file /etc/container/dbuser-map has to be updated manuallyPlesk already has integration with CageFS and LVM and detects it once those features installed on the server. It would be great if support for MySQL Governor be implemented in future.

Create .7Z dumps of databases
Within Plesk it is possible to create a dump of a (SQL Server) database. Plesk then seems to use 7Zip to create a .ZIP file. It would be nice if it was possible to choose between the .ZIP or the .7Z file format as .ZIP is more compatible, but 7Z compresses such database dumps up to 10 times better.
And of course you would need to be able to import 7Zipped dumps also.10 votesThank you for your input! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

MySQL change the charset
Allow to chose another charset when creating a database or do not set one.
Plesk does use:
"CREATE DATABASE databasename /*!40101 default charset=utf8 */"
And with this does overwrite when the MySQL config was changed to use utf8mb4 for example.Or allow to choose a charset on creation or create DBs with:
"CREATE DATABASE databasename"7 votesThank you for your input. We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it is popular. Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.

Mass import database dump
There are scenarios where multiple databases for multiple domains have to be restored.
In such cases, it would be great to be able to mass import dumps from database backup files instead of going one by one manually importing them on a domain basis

Configuring the Default Remote Access Policy for MS SQL and PostgreSQL via UI
Right now, it is possible to manage Access Policy only for MySQL Database Servers only: https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/onyx/administrator-guide/database-servers/database-hosting-preferences.72875/

Restore PostgreSQL databases that has some objects owned by postgres user from Plesk Backup
It would be great to have an ability to restore PostgreSQL databases that has some objects owned by postgres user from Plesk Backup. As of now, backup is created without any errors, however it is not possible to restore the database because restoration is done not in behalf of postgres user.
Or at least have a warning when backup is created that I have to restore the database as a postgres user from the command line and do not rely on backup of the database created via backup manager.

Add the ability to encrypt a Database via Plesk interface
Add the ability to encrypt databases as Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) via Plesk interface, which is supported in MariaDB 10.1 and later.
At-rest encryption means the data files and logs are encrypted on the disk and makes it almost impossible for someone to access or steal a hard disk and get access to the original data (provided that the key is secured and not stored locally).
