Informing community users of new permissible features 
It seems that permissible features which are voted up considerably will be added to a community. By "permissible" I mean those features which are not rejected by the community team due to some policies or technical considerations.

However, as we know well, only a small part of any community members participate in voting on feature-request meta posts because many people either are unaware of such requests or may think that their votes unlikely have a significant impact on adding a new feature to their community.

So, I think it is not a bad idea to add the following feature:

When a feature request is considered as permissible, a notification is sent to any user. In the notification or in the meta post there is an option like "I am not interested" so that a user can vote on it to show their indifference to acceptance or rejection of the proposed feature.

So, with the above feature the community team can see better how much interest in a feature exists among community users.
