REQUEST - Be able to Paste images into Notes and Comments field!
This is must! Tools like Trello already have this and this actually is stepback for some people wanting to migrate. They see that they can't paste images, they go to Trello. [ Spoiler...
joeadkins33, that's a clever approach. Unfortunately, for me, I need to be able to have images (screen shots) in comments to show developers "Here's an issue, see picture." An attached file is separate from the comments so it will be difficult to decipher which image goes with which comment. If a feature or bugfix has a lot of back-and-forth, this can make the whole task impossible to follow.
And they have pushed the release date out yet again, until June this time. I have zero confidence in any Microsoft dates related to this (and started to affect my MS trust overall).

- Even worse, this feature 85688 now excludes pictures :
"Support for images in the notes field will not be included with this feature release but we are tracking that capability on our backlog."

Common MS... -_-'- grandpas, yeah, it's pasting pictures that I most care about. However, in the background info on this update, it appears enabling this rich text field in a parallel data structure, so the plain text one still works on older clients (via the MS API, probably not directly a user-facing issue) is a prerequisite to being able to add the ability to paste images.
That makes sense. It's unfortunate from a timing perspective, because it means further delays to get the feature we need, but at least seeing that they have implemented Rich Text in comments will mean they are closer to having a data structure capable of handling images.
