Reputation gains for Edits
I don't agree with this suggestion.
SO's rep system is for a large part based on positive feedback.
Sure, downvotes will lose you some rep, but that amount is insignificant to how much you receive fo …

The Rise of Unnecessary Code
"there should be a warning upon including too much code"
How should that be measured?
Should that be judged by the amount of characters formatted as inline code and / or in code blocks? Should it co …

When hovering over low-rep user name, please show "member since" and other basic info
I don't think this is a good idea.
It could be used as a reason not to answer a user's question, when a potential answerer sees the OP only registered that day, or never posted something before.

Store attempted action when prompted for login and automatically complete upon redirect from...
You're forgetting about reviews, flags, delete votes, edits, posts...
This seems like a massive amount of work for very little gain.
It'll be remarkably difficult to reliably catch all those actions, …

Avoid leading $ or # when highlighting (double clicking) a command
No thanks.
The effort required to style this properly, while preventing existing content from breaking all over the place hardly seems worth it, compared to pressing
Home, Delete after pasting.
Or j …

There should be an option while asking a question on difficulty level of question from the q...
A concept that's simple to one person might be incomprehensible to another.
Perceived difficulty is extremely subjective, and as such, not very useful to SO.

Automatically replace rfc-xxxx with link to tools.ietf.org in chat and comments
Instead of automatically replacing chat / comment contents, it'd be more semantically correct to implement a markdown extension:
[rfc:1234]
This could be usable in chat, Q/A and comments, without b …

Can we have Stack Overflow shop where people can buy stuff using points?
StackOverflow already hands out goodies at specific milestones.
Let's not turn that "something special" into a market, which would only serve to reduce the awesomeness of the swag. It wouldn't be "sp …

Adding a small title of the file/component name should be easier/mandatory
What's to stop anyone from just adding a small header above a code block?
Like this:
main.js:
console.log("Hello world!");
foo("bar");
function foo(bar) {
// TODO
}
Filenames rarely matter on …

How about making a new sort of bounty specifically to reward excellent answers and encourage...
No.
Adding something like that would make it way too easy to mess with rep.

Integrate an online UML/diagram editor such as Gliffy
I disagree with this request.
I've rarely seen any questions that can't do without UML diagrams. In those cases, if there has to be a diagram, a screenshot of one works just as well. I don't see how …

Tell the user to enable and check compiler warnings
Of course, asking the user to check a checkbox confirming that he'd enabled compiler warnings would be possible.
The problem is that users will check any checkbox required to be able to post a questio …

Suggest that close votes be restricted to members with relevant tag expertise
I disagree with this suggestion. Close votes are taking enough time as it is.
With this restriction, I would only be able to close javascript questions on SO, and no questions on meta, as you can see …
