APEX 18.2 Statement of Direction

I've been thinking recently it's been a while since I remember seeing a revised Statement of Direction, and sure enough I see news of an update for 18.2.

It was back in 2015 that I last made my own conjecture about what each statement means (without the benefit of listening to as many conference sessions) and look at some of the outcomes now!

• IG - well, I'm still a little late to that party, but missing out on early cuts & bruises ;p
• Master detail detail - I was training people last week and it occurred to me this is another feature I don't really work with, but maybe should give a go.
• New charting engine - well JET is going really well! Though I'm still experiencing teething issues with the data densification.

As for APEX 18.2, we now see:

• Improved workspace provisioning wizard - not a big drawcard for myself, but I can see how some fresh attention in this space could be warranted.
• New side-by-side master detail page type available in create page wizard - as I just noted, I need to experiment with recent master-detail development, to perhaps integrate with regular design patterns.
• New dashboard page type available in create page wizard - Now I’m guessing this is just a wizard to help build an appropriate page – full of components already available to us, but used in an effective way. Either way, I'm interested.
• Improved warnings with REST workshop to prevent loss of custom definitions - well, that sounds useful.
• More comprehensive JavaScript API documentation - even more? I've barely had a chance at using the new set. I hope it comes with more examples. I think I saw a glimpse of Shakeeb's /ut application the other night with SQL examples inline for classic report variations. +1 from me.
• Ability to update Font APEX stylesheets and font files independent of Oracle APEX releases - Maxime already showed us this was possible, and easy. I'm glad behaviour like this is enabled by the APEX team. 
• Installing sample datasets now enables the creation of a complete sample application - well, that sounds intriguing.
• EMP / DEPT sample dataset now available in different languages - sometimes I'm grateful my first language is English, but sometimes I really wish I was natively bilingual.
• Updated productivity and sample apps - seems to go without saying now, but I haven't farmed them for ideas for a while.

They've always come through pretty well with these lists, plus a whole bunch of other extra stuff we find along the way. I also found this nugget from Oliver.

After recent experiences I thought I'd add a few examples of what I'd like to see, no doubt forgetting/neglecting some other needs & wants, includes:

• IR - support for saved IR (& IG?) are still hidden away a few layers deep in a task menu. Saved IR are still inseparable from app_id. We could use some love here.
• Excel2Collection - considering the efforts made in assisting Access & Forms users to migrate their information to APEX, perhaps it might be wise to integrate such a simple method of transferring Excel workbook content to a table in the database.
  The ORDS solution hung around for a while, and I find the data loading wizard somewhat clunky. 
• PWA - Vincent recently published a comprehensive guide on turning APEX into a PWA. This technology is early days (certainly in my learning bubble), but I think APEX would benefit from internal support in regard to further penetrating the mobile market.
• Native Super LOV - this one from Menno is great, but surely it's time this was baked in?
• Dynamic Action support for inline modals - there are a few lines of JavaScript I repeat often that I'm sure could be replaced by declarative actions

Anything else? I've made wishlishs in the past (5.x, 4.2), but looking back they seem a little mundane.
