One thing that has been minor but still enough of an inconvenience to cause some UI setup ideas to fall apart, has been the party list's behavior of filling from top to bottom, without an option to make it go from bottom upward as an option.
I was a huge PSO2 player at one point where I was used to seeing my and my party's data on lower half of the screen but placement of the party list is always awkward if you try to put it towards bottom of the screen rather than top or floating in the side. Since the player has to place the list in manner where full 8 party members of space needs to be though of while placing the party list on your screen, even though most of your normal game play you have usually only 4.
Right now my UI setup is put to top corner just because the party list's forevermore lack of option to make it fill from bottom to top and there really is no reason for it, or I would hope it would not, even if PS3 was still a consideration which is no more is.
... I cannot mage up more fancy words for very basic idea/request though. I think generally it would be nice to have the option, and party sorting could also have option of top to bottom/bottom to top as well - say you want an option to have party list fill bottom up, but order classes top to bottom in your preferred sequence, or bottom up in your preferred sequence, which, already is to certain extent possible.
One additional idea I thought about was also alliance lists and thinking A micro party list based on the alliance list could also be an option if some players feel it would be nicer for tanking/DPS'ing or maybe even healing, though it would definitely loose data nor am I "the" idea guy to do more than suggest it, but I do take full use of even the alliance lists the best I can.
TL;DR:
Party list (and party list sorting) could have option for bottom up or up to bottom fill settings.
