Here are a few more things I hope are on the Prophets' radar.
1- Allow clapping in the chapel during services. It's not like a chapel full of screaming kids creates some super reverent environment.
2- Allow brass instruments in the chapel. Always seemed like an arbitrary and weird rule and it paves the way for Moroni to kick off Jesus 2.0 from one of our buildings.
3- If coffee is allowed then go full megachurch with free coffee and donuts every service.
4- Have a restricted use TR for partially worthy members that just allows you go to the celestial room to meditate in your normal clothes or attend weddings but you're not allowed to do the endowment, sealings, or help the youth with baptisms for the dead.
5- Meeting times are settled by a basketball tournament and/or stick pulling contest between all the wards in a building.
