Saving custom presets is now available in BETA starting V28.6.578.
With this new change, you can now configure your own document preset and save it for later use. To access this functionality, configure your preset from the File > New dialog (only for the modern one, the legacy dialog don’t provide it) and click the Save Preset button next to the document’s name in the top right corner of the dialog.
Your custom preset is now saved and accessible from the 'Saved' category.
Please try out this feature, so that if there are any feedback from you, we can resolve them and make this feature available to everyone.

An error occurred while saving the comment With the anchor point tool you can convert corner to curve and vice versa. Then you can also grab one handle and move it independently breaking the link between the two handles. Also you can click on one handle to retract it altogether so the is now only one handle.
However, if you have a point with one handle you have no way to get a second handle other than to drag out a new pair of (linked) handles from the anchor which therefore loses the position of that first handle and you have to reshape both handles instead of just the second one as required.
It makes no sense that you have a feature to click on a handle and retract it without an opposite feature to unretract it and manipulate it independently.
In other words to get two handles you have to be prepared to reposition the existing handle. You should be able to preserve that handle and get another handle from the anchor point -

An error occurred while saving the comment Me too finding it frustrating.
In selection and anchor display preferences I have maxed the tolerance to 8 due to Illustrator's annoying intolerance when deleting anchor points.
However, the closest to solving the snap to point problem is to minimise that tolerance to 1 - that makes it much harder to hit another anchor point
So my suggestion to adobe would be to offer a universal snap override hot key. So no matter what the user will have complete freedom in placing an anchor point with the override
This snapping to point is probably a 'feature' in that when closing a path you need it. But it bugs me that it snaps even to another compound path anchor point. Not something that I require in general.

I am happy to share that ‘Auto spell-check’ feature has been shipped in the latest version of Illustrator. Here is how to enable/disable it in the latest release : https://helpx.adobe.com/in/illustrator/using/whats-new/2020.html#spellcheck
