I happen not to have some of the requests that you do and am still getting used to 3.0.

Things that I really wish Olympus would add to the 1.2 or at the very least, EM1 Mark III is:

  • Ability to tie face detection to focus point so I can select which face to focus on in a crowd.
  • Ability to use the camera while connected to my phone
  • Combine all Wi-Fi related settings to one menu location. Turning the wifi on and connecting is far apart in the menu and to save battery life I have to initiate both when I want to share something.
  • Streamline the whole sharing process. It needs some work.

That doesn't take away from how happy I am with firmware 3.0. I feel in many ways like I have a new camera. The drastically improved video AF, ability to select multiple images much faster, EC in manual mode, improved AF-C... These are practical improvements that will make my life easier on a daily basis.
