Overall the signal from beginners that did not give up early 
appears to be IDE and libraries. From experienced beginners the 
signal is inconsistencies and unusual choices. From nonhardcore 
the signal is lack of stability. From hardcore the signal is 
incompleteness.

Then the usual requests for features from other languages...

Adding more features is probably not an improvement overall.
