Zoho Creator and the introduction of new features(Blueprints)

I don't understand the reasoning behind the new feature of Blueprint, I cannot help but be disappointed that it's release has a higher priority than some updates to existing features which have been promised but not delivered on. There are 2 that spring to mind, the first is the ability to sort subform rows which was promised for the 1st quarter of 2021 and the other is the ability to edit a subform row as a popup.

As someone who creates a lot of different applications across a wide range of industries, these unfinished features really don't help when trying to sell Creator to customers. I've seen this constructive criticism numerous times in the past and I can't help but think that the Zoho Creator team just ignore it.

Just a quick search in the forums and you can find some suggestions that would improve Creator a lot more than introducing a feature which could already be configured by an experienced user/developer:
  1. Warning message upon submit with the ability to ignore it and continue the submission - 3 years ago
  2. The ability to populate fields based on the current form when using the "Add New" option of a lookup field - 5 Years ago
  3. Setting field focus programmatically - 8 Years ago
  4. Offline Developing Environments or IDE's for Zoho Creator - 11 years ago
  5. Drag and drop blocks in the detail view of reports - 2 years ago
  6. Dynamic Field Names/Labels - 5 years ago
And there are many more suggestions which in my humble opinion would make Creator a much more attractive proposition to all.
