For stretch+1, what I'd like to see is a tool that a) works b) has output that's nice for a human to read and c) has output that can be easily processed by programs. None of the current tools comes anywhere near. Bonus points if the command line syntax is reasonbly nice, and the manpage doesn't start with a BNF syntax description.
