office 365 group expiration
Within the Office 365 Group Expiration setup there should be a way to set it such that all groups *except* specific ones are subject to the expiration setting. As it stands now it's the other way around; all groups or only the selected ones. In an environment where users are permitted to created their own groups (something I was told even Microsoft allows) you really need the expiration feature enabled by default. But there are certainly use cases where as an admin you will want specific groups exempted from this setting.

Recovery Service Vault, Backup storage Replication in ARM
Currently there is no way to sepcify which storage replication is wanted when you create a Recovery Services Vault via ARM templates.
The default when spinning up a vault is GRS, and the only way to change it is to log into the portal and choose LRS before any backups have been applied.
The fact that the type of storage replication cannot be changed after a backup has been set does not help the situation.
This makes automating infrastrucutre builds painful as I have to login and change the setting in the portal before i am able to continue adding…

Allow NSG for VPN Gateway Subnet
We want to connect several devices with our Azure VNET via the VPN Gateway. Therefore the VPN Gateway is configured for P2S connections.
We want to restrict the devices so that they can only communicate with certain other devices.
To implement this functionality we need to assign the VPN Gateway subnet a NSG. Furthermore this NSG should be dynamic, because the IPs provided by the VPN Gateway to its clients clould not be predetermined.
Currently NSGs are not supported for VPN Gateway subnets as well as there is no way to control IP allocation for connecting devices.

Prevent Creation of Classic Machine Learning Web Services so Tags can be Enforced
Prevent Creation of Legacy Machine Learning Workspace Commitment Plans and classic web services so Tags can be Enforced.
Our organization sets a Tag policy on resource groups so that newly created resources within that resource group will inherit tags. The main tag is 'Department Code', and is used for Chargeback for resource usage. Any Machine Learning 'classic' web services, that were created using the Machine Learning Studio portal will be created outside of the standard tagged resource group and thus, will not inherit standard tags used for Chargeback.
We also need a migration method for existing classic web services to…

Create the ability to remove or change inherited permissions at the resource group level.
We have a managed service provider and some customers that need a degree of permissions at the subscription level. There are several resource groups that I do not want them to have the same level of access they have at the subscription level. For instance, I would like to remove them from the Azure Automation RG or provide them read level access to our OS image folder.

For each resource creation save the date and the user
Usually when you create a resource you do not know when was created and by whom, the information in logs is available only for a determined period of time and then lost, that is something that will be very helpful to include in the Overview section.

Allow firewall rules on Azure SQL DB to be removed via ARM templates
Currently it seems that because the firewall rules for an Azure SQL DB are just proxy resources in an ARM template that you can not remove them via this mechanism. If you remove them from the ARM template, they are not removed from the Azure SQL DB resource. This means that it is not possible to properly source control the configuration as the source controlled configuration can differ from reality. I think it is vital to allow people to properly manage the Azure SQL DB as code that you work allow the rules to be removed via the ARM template.

SQLCMD Unexplained behaviour returning output starting with square brackets
complete explanation at https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/b0c08c5d-a6aa-4ec7-9b54-87807cf81548/sql-server-2012-sqlcmd-unexplained-behaviour-returning-output-containing-square-brackets-?forum=sqltools
Basically, SQLCMD does not behave the same way since SQL 2012 when a message starts with an opening bracket.
The following command returns an empty string when previous version returned the entire text:
sqlcmd -b -E -S -Q "RAISERROR('[A][B][C]',10,1)"
this one removes the firs value between brackets:
sqlcmd -b -E -S -Q "RAISERROR('[A] [B][C]',10,1)"29 votes -

Add support for Remote Desktop to the Azure Application Gateway
Add Azure Application Gateway (With WAF) support for RD Gateway traffic.
Currently I can only route traffic for RD Web through the application gateway. It would be useful if I could route all RD traffic through the application gateway and not have to have multiple public IPs and Traffic Manager profiles and split RD Broker/Web and RD Gateway traffic.
At the moment I can't even route RD Gateway traffic through Application Gateway even with WAF disabled.

Application gateway should have the capability to store certificate in Azure Key Vault
Currently Application gateway does not store certificate in Azure Key Vault. We believe that Application gateway should have the capability to do that. This will give customer more control over their certificate than saving it in Microsofts encrypted storage.

B2B invitation status
Azure Active Directory B2B account.
Now there isn't possiblity to generate report, if B2B user has activated account or not. It would be good to have feature to list not activated users from administrative perspective. Example when doing acocunt clean up.
There are fields in profile like Source which contain Invited user or Resend invitation button is visible. Those indicates if user hasn't activated invitation.
Or even have automatic removal on directory, if invitation hasn't been approved within X days, B2B account is removed automatically. As if account hasn't been activated, it cannot be used anywhere.

Allow Subscription Owners to Filter VMs by Service Principals
Currently, I don't see any way to filter resources (either in the UI or via the CLI) in such a way that I can see what any given Service Principal has on the subscription. This is important for me, as I've got multiple Principals which are each tied to a different user, and I'd like to be able to have insight into what sort of resources & usage each user on my Subscriptions are consuming.
It would be very useful to have this in both the UI for quick checks, as well as in the CLI so reports can be…
