What can Litmus do better?  Let us know!

= Test Related =
* Improve ability to query tests
* Improve test writing workflow
* Ability to tag test cases by Operating System, so someone could run test cases specific to the Mac or Win OS, for example. There are a number of other suites such as the Leopard Test Suite where if the person was on 10.5 we could tag those test cases as part of a 10.5 or 10.6 specific run, for example.
* Improve the status of a test that is currently undergoing actual code revision (patches in a bug #) (mark with some flag so a user can skip)
* When running a test that will need closing the browser, enable a feature to save all the previous tests so they wont be lost and we wouldn't have to run them again.
* Add support to cross-link Mozmill tests. It should be easier to query for tests which are covered by Mozmill. Further the test results of those tests should be combined with the manual test results via Litmus. That way we know which tests have been already tested and don't have to be re-run manually.

= Performance Related =
* Improve UI sluggishness

= Reporting Related =
* Need a much more robust interface to be able to report metrics such as:
**How many test cases individual users created (can only be done on backend now)
**How many test cases contributed by the community
**Be able to query testcases added/recently changed by more than a 7 day time period as well as by component
