Currently there are 3 editing programs on the computer - two of them are PD8 and PD10
The 'other' one gets by far most of the use, PD8 next for some specific needs, and then PD10 only for specific needs such as 59.94fps rendering where it does a better job than the other two. PDxx support for surround sound is a big plus and is one key reason they are purchased and installed.
I would like to see PD8 morph in to a 32 bit only Win8 compatible PD-11 lite - don't break it, just adjust it to work on new platforms. (It is running now for me on Win8 release preview on a trial basis on a second older computer.) PD8, compared to PD10 or PD9 runs so smoothly and responsively and is such a less stressful experience.
I would like to see PD11 be a 64bit only platform capable of playing well with Win8/64 and modern hardware (ie SSD's and have much less sensitivity to the particular flavor of video driver, etc).
Along the way, for this new full featured PD11, let timeline scrubbing be as smooth and responsive as PD8 (or better to match the other programs available) and ixnay on the audio track companding and equalization that happens ALWAYS. New features are good, but, mainly pay attention to speed, responsiveness, reliability, and high quality rendering vs lots of new features that sorta work.
I suspect that PD11 is essentially or completely 'done', but ahhh perhaps for PD12! Then I could only buy ONE program!
