Displays a feature's values and also defines its semantics for the Feature_roadmap. It's based on {{Feature request}} (will some day replace it), but displays several extra feature properties, and makes semantic annotations of them. Both templates use {{Definition table}} to lay display


Usage

{{Feature_request
|Name=A brief less-than-one-line summary of the feature, used as the title
|Feature subcategory=A subcategory of [[Category:Software features]]
|Primary requester=wiki page for primary requester
|Requesters=Deployments, engineers, or both who support the request

|Requirements=User level requirement definition; Links to detailed wiki pages, mailing list threads, or other resources are welcome
*or
*a
*list
*of
*them

|Specification=Design and technical implementation ideas; Links to detailed wiki pages, mailing list threads, or other resources are welcome
*or a list
*of relevant links

|Owners=Names of developers and/or champions of the request who will ensure that progress is made

|Priority=4 - low
|Helps deployability=yes or no
|Target for 9.1=yes or no
}}

Priority is restricted to the values listed on the Property:Priority page.
