Is there a canonical place for feature requests?

I'm new to Cura, and overall I'm liking it. I miss a couple things from repetier that should be simple to add (and may try myself if I can find the time.)

The specific fatures are:

1. showing the layer number during printing. This is handy if you want to pause at a specific feature or tweak the temp (for bridging etc.) I know I can edit the gcode, but I like to know where I am, not just which line of gcode.

2. Separate home buttons for X and Y. The way I have my printer set up, if I home and z is already low, I'll run into my glass clips. I've modified my starting and ending gcode so that it lifts before homing x and y, but if I'm jogging, it's troublesome.

Spotted it.

I'm thinking about what to do with the USB printing dialog. It has been neglected for quite a while (due to printing with SD card all the time) and it needs some re-designing, as it's confusing for the basic user and not powerful enough for the power-user. I'll keep your requests in mind when I finally get to this.

        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
