ChatGpt wrote: Dear WinAppSDK Team, I hope this message finds you well. As I explore the capabilities of WinAppSDK, I've identified a usability concern related to ContentDialogs, especially when utilized for data entry. Due to the fixed positioning, the inability to drag and reposition these dialogs limits their flexibility and prevents users from viewing the content beneath them. Best regards, Thank You! 😄 |

Finally with AOT support we can move from UWP. For us the faster this can come, even in a beta version, the better, as maintaining UWP is preventing us from moving to dotnet8. |

I would like to see the following experimental features being promoted to stable: ContentExternalOutputLink class: To enable blending of content with swap chains using directcomposition interop. Alternatively, a way to enable experimental features in stable releases would also be beneficial, as the experimental releases lack bugfixes compared to the stable releases. |

Why did you stop using this product board: https://portal.productboard.com/winappsdk/1-windows-app-sdk/tabs/2-planned? This was quite clear what was going on and offered voting which allows the most popular options to be visible. Is there anything else like this I should be looking at? I would like to try to make use of some of this through XAML Islands for WPF, in an easy way that works well. Not sure what this will look like at present. Going all in on using Win UI 3: Validation on editors and this issue: microsoft/microsoft-ui-xaml#6299 |

Please resolve [BUG] XamlTypeInfo.g.cs generates invalid code for types with required or init properties if possible. I'm sure this issue will give every WinUI developer a headache at some point. ~I just lost a fair amount of time trying to figure out why my builds were failing. |

Please stop automatically adding this stuff to csproj files every time a XAML file is added to a project, it hasn't been necessary for a while now and is just garbage to clean up: <ItemGroup>
<None Remove="asdf.xaml" />
</ItemGroup>
<ItemGroup>
<Page Update="asdf.xaml">
<XamlRuntime>$(DefaultXamlRuntime)</XamlRuntime>
</Page>
</ItemGroup> |

@codendone Is there a plan to improve general performance in the sense that MAUI applications on Windows will be faster? Right now, in the debug mode, I can see that simple WinRT calls take several milliseconds which adds up quickly. |

Modify the AppConatiner to allow use of WinRT disk IO and .net FileInfo at the same time. WinRT IO is 10x slower when the AppContainer is in full trust. |

Very pleased that the content on inking controls has been updated. I look forward to being able to utilize this feature in version 1.7+ |

Still experiencing intermittent crashes related to 9070 and possibly others when users are just interacting with the app. Is there a way we can prevent the application from force closing completely when an error unrelated to the application is thrown? We handle all of our exceptions and store them for later research but we can't do that when the app force closes. |

It would help the new APIs like https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/ai/apis/text-recognition-api-ref could be used in a plain GPU. Very few have a NPU yet. |

@codendone It would be nice to see support for Native AOT for OptionalPackages. We have OptionalPackages loaded at runtime using AssemblyLoadContext. |
