Software Wishlist

There's a thread for things people want changed. But I feel like it includes too much hardware and I was wanting a thread focused on software that is currently possible. We all know brake hold and plug & charge are coming and bug fixes but there could be more updates to comfort & convenience. My big one that I just experienced after coming home from work is the light near the charger port doesn't always turn on. I had to turn on my garage lights to be able to plug-in. I'd like for it to turn on all the time when the cap is open and maybe turn on again when the car sees you approach again.

I can definitely second the charge port light turning on, but it makes more sense to have it turn on whenever that charge door is opened. And the option to keep the car "on" when getting out (maybe a timespan setting we can select on the goodbye screen) would be very nice to have for when you just need to quickly get out to do something (like get the mail, or grab something from the trunk real quick) but want to keep your connected music playing and the AC on.

2. Explicit driver profiles in the interface. Right now there are apparently some settings that are saved with the driver seat memory buttons but I have no clue what those settings are. Radio presets, driver seat memory (both 1 and 2), driving mode, climate control settings, bluetooth and carplay priority, UI layout, ambient lighting, etc should all be tied to a driver profile. Should support many profiles. Also you should be able to tie a specific profile to a specific key.
I think there is some profiling being done with the keys, as when I use the second/spare key, the side mirrors always change to a different position that I need to correct, which does not occur when I use the main key. So there is some recognition by the car between the keys, which means this should be very easy to add more.

2. To have the configurable homes screens allow you to use the same widget on multiple screens. Why can each only be used once, that is bonkers
Adding to this to allow for all widgets to be available in all slots, because currently some slots are limited to only certain widgets, which causes me to not have the most efficient layout possible. (It also keeps me from having all the information I need while driving readily available, and without having to look away from the road to switch views.)
