    Ability to apply security to a field, and read-only to a field for a group of editors. This would allow us to make more content manageable in the GUI, and would help in translation scenarios where we want to give a translator access to the text content...

    Currently, if you publish a publication or a structure group, you end up with a single publishing transaction. We've accepted this for years because it's "just the way Tridion works". I would generally suggest that creating one big publish transaction...
