A killer feature would be a custom setting section where you choose which settings to include in the memory bank of custom settings - and importantly which ones to exclude.

Indeed, and I think others have previously suggested this as a reaction to the changes introduced in the X-E4.

I think this applies to a few other things as well. View mode, for example. I don’t know about you, but I’d actually like to reduce the available options to two, and then be able to use a function button to instantly toggle them, instead of cycling through five modes, one of which seems silly and two more I don’t need. (Actually, assuming we’re keeping the screen, I’d just like to be able to shoot with the EVF/OVF without also having to use it for menus. Not sure why Fujifilm managed to realise for the X100V and XPro3 that people could use separate options for shooting and playback, without also realising that shooting isn’t the same as using the menu. “Shooting” and “everything else” would have been rather more useful IMO.)
