Conditional Formatting, enhancement requests
Options

Some features I would like to see in the future:
1. Allow using a formula for conditional tests. Using only the drop-downs is rather limiting.
e.g. If COUNT(CHILDREN())>0 then apply...
2. Allow selecting multiple columns to apply formatting. It's super annoying to clone a rule several times to highlight multiple columns.
3. Allow grouping of rules to organize long lists and clearly show hierarchy. For example, a group of rules that intensifies the fill colors as a due date approaches:
Rule
Rule
Group (expand/collapse)
-----Rule: If [Due] is Today...
-----Rule: If [Due] is Today +1...
-----Rule: If [Due] is Today +3...
