Yeah, I had a feeling that would be your response @William English‚ (and to a point, I agree) but‚Ķthat's not how the folks who paid for the software look at it. We tried putting together a list of "things Fusion would solve" and‚Ķthe folks with the money were unimpressed and it got looked at more as a "list of things lacking in Workfront, we can work around them for free or by other means." Given what WF costs, hearing "Fusion solves this" doesn't work in my favor, or WF's. And given what Fusion costs, that pushes it further away.

I do agree to a point, and I'd love to have Fusion as a tool in the toolbox, but others (and to some degree myself) view Fusion as something for integration between separate systems, not as something to work-around features in WF itself that are viewed as "should be included in-box." Especially something as obvious/simple as sequential numbering. Even the most bone-basic would have likely worked (or could have been worked around), but we don't even have that.

As for field validation…yeah, I would love to have even basic grep pattern matching. Seriously, even InDesign can do that…
