  • Developer UX of creating a new application from available language templates
  • TF token response & lack of error handling

Another area of consideration is how empty a directory needs to be. See #1697.

We did some work on this last summer before Sarah left. While it wasn't complete, we have no immediate plans to pick this work back up again, so I'm going to close this issue for now. We can always open a new issue when/if we plan a new initiative in this area.
