Install MySQL Connector/ODBC 8.0 to support modern TLS versions and ciphers
(This is related to https://plesk.uservoice.com/forums/184549-feature-suggestions/suggestions/44353242-add-mariadb-connector-odbc)

MySQL Connector/ODBC version 8 needs to be available to Plesk users, because 5.3 is outdated, not to mention 3.51.
In MySQL Connector/ODBC, there is support for new, modern TLS versions and ciphers.

c:\vevida\myodbc\8.0.21\x64\myodbc8W.dll(a registered ODBC driver is nothing more than a registry value to a DLL file in Windows Server)

Managing crontab via CLI
It would be very conenient to be able to manage the subscriptions' scheduled tasks via CLI.
6 votescronjobs can easily be managed by Linux commands already. They may not be sourced from Plesk, but all tools already exist on the operating system. As cronjobs are read by Plesk from disk, manipulating the corresponding files on disk will set everything you wish. Individual cron files are stored in /var/spool/cron and can be text-edited. You can add files, edit files, append files and delete files using Linux commands. You can also stream-edit files (e.g. insert a commend tag before a line with sed) and also create Linux control while-loops to apply changes to filtered files. Cron can also be controlled directly (https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/crontab.1.html).
Please let us know in details what you are missing or please provide an example how you would like Plesk to work with cron instead.

Support for horizontal auto-scaling on AWS EC2
Add a support for horizontal auto-scaling on AWS EC2 (which is more important than vertical scaling https://plesk.uservoice.com/forums/184549-feature-suggestions/suggestions/44035182) - it automatically adds instances in order to handle an increase in load. With horizontal scaling, the load is distributed across multiple instances, and by distributing these instances across Availability Zones, horizontal scaling not only increases performance, but also improves the overall reliability. So, it'd be great if support for this AWS feature is added to Plesk.

support algorithm 16 (ed448) in DNSSEC
Recognising the increasing challenges in these times, would welcome the implementation of the Edwards-curve Digital Signature Algorithm (EdDSA) type ed448 for security and to keep ahead of the curve (sic.) on the cryptographic front...
interesting tool here too for those interested in checking out where they're up to with browser support (and to know the differences between the different algorithms): https://ed448.no/

Ability to exclude www for domain aliases when issue Let's Encrypt certificate
Currently in SSL It! extension the option is "Include a "www" subdomain for the domain and each selected alias". In that way the Let's Encrypt limit will take effect if many aliases exist in Plesk for domain.
For example, it is required to protect example.com, www.example.com and 50 aliases. In that way Let's encrypt will protect example.com, www.example.com and 100 aliases (50 without www and 50 with WWW) and it will hit the Let's Encrypt Limit.

Ability to automatically update TXT records for Wildcard certificates through Domain Connect
The domain validation for letsencrpypt for wildcard domains uses a TXT-record (acme-challenge.<YOURDOMAIN>).
This record is set by plesk on the local dns server, but it is not synchronized to our (the official) nameservers for a domain which is using the domainconnect extension. So the validation will fail, or the customer have to set this record manually every few months, when a revalidation is required.Can domainconnect be improved to synchronize this record?

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).

Apply SELinux policy for custom vhosts directory
Currently Plesk has predefined SELinux policies for default location of vhosts directory (/var/www/vhosts). If virtual hosts directory changed to custom one, it is needed to disable SELinux (set to permissive), for correct websites working capacity. It would be great to change transvhosts.pl script that policies for /var/www/vhosts will applies to custom vhost directory.

Retrieve the WordPress password and admin username of the customer
We'd like to auto-deploy some wordpress instances on our Plesk server. I've tested the Wordpress Toolkit, and it works great, but I have one problem : The Wordpress admin password isn't sent to the customer.
I know that we can read the password from the Plesk Interface, but I'd like our users to get their wordpress password without having them to log on into Plesk.
Please implement any solution to send the Wordpress password to the customer, e.g to get it trough the API call or to be able to sent the email notification directly from Plesk.

Possibility to manage time syncronization in Plesk on Debian 10 / Ubuntu 20 / CentOS 8
Plesk supports Debian 10, Ubuntu 20 and CentOS 8, but currently it's not possible to manage network time settings in Tools & Setting > System Date and Time > Network Time on these operating systems.
Despite of having native systemd-timesyncd.service (that manages time syncing out of the box), it would be easier to manage NTP time settings using Plesk interface.
