Multiple distribution packages assigned to one software
The problem is that there are a lot of software applications out there that don't differentiate themselves once installed between 32 bit, 64 bit, or any of the OSs (i.e. 2003 vs. 2008) but have different installation packages depending on these items.

Software inventory aging
I would like to see an aging process for removal of software that is no longer installed but resides in the software inventory. It wouuld be nice to include an audit process where software is flagged after 90 days of a zero install count to add to a smart label then report before removal from the table.

Option to change settings for ALL or 1 organization from the System Org
In our environment, we require multiple organizations. Many times, I need to make the same change to all orgs, and it takes a lot of time to edit each organization. I would like the option to "apply changes to all organizations" so that I don't have to spend all my time going through each org to make a simple change.

Machine action short ID bind for UVNC proxy support
Would be nice to have a short ID available as a bind variable in machine actions. That way, UltraVNC proxy v2 could be implemented and we would less be limited by remote NATs. Even better would be that such proxy be integrated in the K1000

Initiate patch installation to local machine from patch detail page
From the adminui/patch.php page, add a button to force a detect/deploy for the patch on the current machine. This would be useful for trouble-shooting failed patch deployments when only a few machines have trouble.

Drill Down Based On Labels
It would be nice if you could choose an option that instead of using the labels to be completely inclusive you can use the labels to be more exclusive. For instance, you could use a label for Windows XP machines and then another label for machines that have Firefox 3.x installed. Instead of having to make a brand new label for windows xp machines with firefox installed you could use both in conjunction to drill down to what you're looking for. This would allow you to create more broad labels that could be used over and over again.

wait
When scripting, it would be useful to have a pause/wait feature. Similar to the start /wait functionality in a batch file, this would be helpful in online kscripts.

File Sync - multiple location fields
File sync needs to be improved to allow multiple locations to be synced at once instead of creating different packages. It would be ideal to have multiple file paths sync - similar to the dependencies on a script.

Roles: Attach labels
It would be handy to attach certain labels to roles so any members/users of certain roles will automatically have specific labels associated to them.

Smart Label patches on type/category
Let it be possible to also create patch lables on the criteria WHICH category it belongs to.
Example: Smart Label which only contains Service Packs for Windows 7.
MS is using this "form" in their WSUS solution. See screenshot.20 votes -
Create a machine label from PCs that failed a script run
If I do a script "Run Now" on all PCs in the organization, and a handful of those PCs fail, it would be nice to be able to build a machine label from that list of PCs so I can re run the script on just those PCs that failed to run the first time.
