These are some things that I miss in the Touch hardware workflow:
-Full Browser with Tags, Images for the expansions, live search function etc...
-Plugin Window ala V-Control by neinrick
-Full RGB color picker. More options in the Pad Color section, such as put a color to a Pad but let choose a diferent gradient for velocity feedback.
-Menu appear while pressing Menu button and dissapears when release it, I believe it would be a faster workflow.
-VIP integration.

Not really a suggestion, but the screen on this MPC Touch is a bit wonky. I mean the screen itself is sweet. I don't know if this is a problem with the MPC (displaylink) driver, the video card driver, or Windows 10 but it's irritating as hell. I have 3 monitors plus I have a 42 inch TV that I use occasionally. The 3 monitors are on my desk and the TV is about 12 ft behind me, all connected with a Geforce GTX 960. I usually have the TV disabled, sometimes I need to disable one or two of my monitors as well to use with my work laptop, along with my workstation simultaneously. I have to disable them to keep windows from popping up on screens that I'm not using on each system.
Anyway the problem is when you disable any one of the displays, and try to launch the MPC software, it tells you that mirroring needs to be disabled for the screen to work. Well mirroring is disabled, and the displays are disabled(disconnected) in windows display settings. I had to physically disconnect the TV because of how rarely I use it, but the displays on my desk are a different story. Anyway, it's something they need to look into on multi-display set-ups, or maybe they're already aware of it and working on a fix. It's not a deal breaker, just annoying as hell.

I would prefer to have the Program mixers and the Channel mixer as faders than as pads.
Because it is a touch display you could slide the faders with the fingers or select and control with the jogwheel.
At least to have the choice of seeing it this way.

Full keyboard with score underscore etc...
And full Numpad keyboard.
The ability of saving a new project from the hardware
Freedom of the touch display to be used by other windows programs that can take the advantage of a touch screen, such FL studio etc.

Forget this, my bad! the way it is it's very nice and fast.

As Touch is the first MPC without Locate buttons and buttons to let you jump by bars, I'd suggest that hitting Shift and +/- in grid view lets you do that.
