1. I vastly prefer the way conditional text was handled in version 7, where the conditional window could be left open, like the character and paragraph windows (pods). The new way in version 8, where you have to go to the menu, pull down Special, then choose Conditional Text, then choose which function you want, is slow! I use conditional text dozens of times each day, and this is getting pretty annoying.
2. I would love to see highlighting as an option for conditional text. For example, I would like to be able to highlight changes in a draft in a color, and then have this text still highlighted when it gets to my reviewers. My reviewers would also love that.
3. My reviewers would like to be able to search for conditional text in a .pdf. This would save them tons of time when they are reviewing a revision, because they could just zoom through, stopping only at the changes. We've tried doing a .pdf document compare, and too many unimportant things (like date and page numbers) show up.
