Text block with paragraph styling
I dream for text block with automaticaly applied paragraph styling to every text in it. If you have linked text blocks, each with its own style, you can put text from a database or a worksheet and avoid formatting each row individually. Present sheet with business cards where name, address, job, etc. are linked to text boxes and you put in them data from excel. You have to format each item in the style. If the blocks carry the style of the text, it is enough to make sure each text is in its box.

Short Cut for eye dropper tool can be engaged while working on type
Right now the eye dropper tool works really well.
I am currently using it to copy styles from other type that I am working on.
I normally select type, then manually select the eyedropper tool. But when repeated over and over I have to de-select type, short cut to type tool, select type, manually select eyedropper.I propose that the eye dropper tool use an alt or ctrl key in addition to "I" so that you can switch to the tool with a short cut while you still have type selected.

Group keyboard shortcut
Grouping is something I use a lot but it's kind of cumbersome to do now so it would be easier to have a keyboard shortcut for it.

Easier access to typekit options
I noticed that the link to the external typekit web app is no longer in the type (character) tool box. I see how the whole mechanism to search is more integrated but its still harder to scroll through font weights, type custom sample text etc. I just think there could be a link to the external web app right there in the tool box still even with the updated integration so you have the option to search differently. I see that you can still get to that web app but it feel more clunky for my work flow than it…

Provide more information on how to get to "Baseline Shift".- It took one day and numerous forum posts to figure it out.
To do a type/ baseline shift in Illustrator requires that one Preference be toggled ON. That's just in order to see the option in the Type pallet. I'm sure you know which one, so I won't bother telling you. If that pref is NOT set to ON, the user will not be able to find Baseline Shift, let alone use it. I wasted an hour or so trying to find it, then gave up and did the baseline shift in photoshop. I asked on the AI Forum, and got many answers, none of which tipped me off-until I had already…

Stop changing artwork location when changing paragraph justification
When working with type, it is incredibly annoying that all of it shifts it's location when you're changing paragraph justification. I'm not sure for what reason you would want it to move the actual type and not just shift the justification icon box shown at the type baseline.

Ligatures are broken
OpenType ligatures are broken in Illustrator. When the ligatures feature is enabled most ligatures remain different letters. If ligatures are input directly from the glyphs palette they will decompose into different letters. Even if ligatures are disabled they still decompose into different letters when input from the glyphs palette.

Don't force baseline shift settings to be sticky
For me, I only rarely need to adjust baseline shift settings (usually when I want to adjust the verticality of a trademark symbol relative to body copy.
Unfortunately, Illustrator retains the baseline shift value, so subsequent text has it applied by default, forcing me to reset it. I'd absolutely love it if that setting defaulted back to zero, given the infrequency with which I actually need to use it (for me, it's the exception, not the rule). Generally after my occasional need for a baseline-adjusted character, I'm forced to type in new text, manually reset the baseline shift value to…

Fullcap function doesn't work for ydieresis
The fullcaps function doesn't work for the character “ÿ” y-dieresis. All the other letters work correctly, and it works in inDesign too, the problem seems to appear only in AI and PS

Rotate all text in place
Being able to select all Text on an art board and rotate it all in place would be extremely helpful versus having to rotate each text box individually after rotating an art board.
1 voteAn intended way of doing that is to use Object > Transform > Transform Each command. But there is no way to rotate objects right there on canvas with the Rotate tool. If you want the mode for Rotate tool to do that, vote here: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-desktop-feature-requests/suggestions/46268581-rotate-objects-separately

Font auto-activation for fonts stored on local PC
The CC 2019 update Activate Adobe Font function is brilliant, but it would be even better if it did the same for fonts on my own computer too
