I don't see a lot of features I want on this list, surprisingly. Tells volumes about how well designed the language currently is. The trailing commas and SAM conversions would probably be my first picks

[trevjones]

why the trailing comma thing? seems like a reason for already overly lazy people to be even more inconsistent.

It makes code editing more painful than it needs to be

reordering params without trailing commas sucks. And I'm convinced that trailing commas would be more useful for collection literals than replacing arrayOf, mapOf, etc.

I'm WAY more bugged by the fact that I always need to add a new comma to an unrelated line when I want to add more elements to a given collection literal than I am by a few characters at the top that are, if anything, very useful and descriptive.
