Some ideas:
Eye view - the ability to move the camera as if you're in a first person game, this will make it easier to go into tight spaces such as a room in a house and inspect building errors etc. The movement could be tied to the grid stepping.
The ability to select all parts of a given type or color does exist but only if you assign a keyboard hotkey for 'select working part' or 'select working color' and then holding shift when you want to do 'select working part' / 'select working color' a second time. But shift does not work with the menu item, only a hotkey so maybe add shift support to the menu item and also assign a keyboard shortcut by default for 'select working part/color' because it is used super often.
Also a 'select all connected parts' like in LDD would be cool.
The ability to rotate multiple bricks but where they have their own rotation centers instead of a single rotation center where everything else selected orbits that.
A secondary color ootion like in MSpaint by right clicking on a color square in the color menu and having a second long square telling you the currently selected secondary color.
Also the ability to automatically align another part to a part with a diagonaal edge like a wing plate. example
A new 'node view' editing pane like in the following video for auto generating parametric structures like in grasshoooer/blender: https://youtu.be/8TFrz2eWyB0?t=865
