Hey, I'm also very glad that you stumbled upon my add . And you already uploaded quite a number of quests - thanks for that. So here are my thoughts about your suggestions ...
In general most of your wished features are not a problem at all - so I guess they will be implented all at once as their internal functionality is nearly the same. Including your suggestions I have the following on my list:
- Hearthstone
- Sell and Repair
- Flight Points and Boats (that might take a few weeks to gather them all)
- Item Buy
- profession level, achievements
The usage of quest items is already implented (for objectives as well as for the pick-up of quests), but the addon still has some problems to record some of those items. If you have some quests in mind that lack their corresponding quest items, please give me a note and I will add those items manually.
The triggering of sub-areas on the map is an interesting thought, although it might blow up memory usage a bit as there are no internal area id's for map zones. But still, it is no big deal and I'm considering to add this feature as well.
Hmm, what else ... ughh, right, you don't have to start a new toon just to add some missing quests to your guides. If those quests are already contributed you can use the Online Editor to manually insert them into your guides.
And one last thing - I will surely test out your guides with one of my toons to give you some feedback, but as a guide author myself I know the most important (and satisfying) thing is a rising number of downloads and comments. So if you know some players (maybe some guild members) to test out your guides, just go ahead and spread the word :-)

I realized this morning that at the time of my post, I was on my way to bed and that my post seemed a little negative towards this project of yours. I do apologize, as I am quite pleased with its versatility and usefulness. What pleased me most, was the seamless way that quests can be recorded and then submitted for easy guide creation. Also, the fact that I can cut out writing quests down on paper and then transfer them to a Notepad file, is much easier to handle. It makes playing WoW while creating a guide less of a chore.
In short, keep up the good work. This add-on definitely has enormous potential to become a strong contender against QuestHelper and TourGuide.
As for my current projects, they are basic guides with no flare - flare which I intend on adding as the options become available to me.
For now, my main goals are simple:
1: Contribute missing quests
2: Create cookie-cutter guides which can be added to later

Don't mind that - I never felt your post to be some kind of negative. And you are contributing quests at lightning speed - you can say whatever you want as long as you keep up your great work
No, seriously, I'm pretty amazed of how fast you are cleaning up the outland areas. In fact that is some kind of double pleasure for me as I have a few toons ready to enter outland that I can use now to gather the german counterparts of your quests just by replaying your guides on the german client. So your work is really appreciated!
And I promise to do my best to get all the wished features working - even if it may actually look like the development of the project is not getting any further ... I'm working on it!
