Markup permissions should be more granular

Hello,

It would be useful to be able to turn off permission to add more markups for certain users (e.g. once the comment period is closed) but still allow them the ability to reply to the comment or set status on the comment. I guess I'm asking for a more granular applied permissions list. As it stands, it's either a markup is allowed or denied. It should be broken out into 1) add markup; 2) add reply to markup; 3) set status to markup; and 4) set status to reply.

For the last one above, it'd be helpful to be able allow or deny setting status on a reply to a comment because it messes up the ability to filter by status accurately when people set status on the reply and not on the original comment.

I could see where this would be helpful. A QC review is an example where you want to limit people to replies or status changes without being able to add markups.

Edit/Unlock markups in Studio Sessions
Please add the ability to allow some users to edit/delete other peoples comments. This can be controlled through permissions. At our organisation when reviewing drawings there is a review manager that consolidates comments before sending them back. This process occurs regardless of if we are using Bluebeam or another tool.…
Add Folders for Studio Sessions!
Add folders for studio sessions to organize the list of recent Studio sessions. Some of our clients utilize one Studio session per deliverable on large projects that have multiple reviewers.

Bullet points & Indent text
With more people using bluebeam as a CAD/drawing program. It would be nice if bullet points/numbers points with auto text indent was a feature.
Auto Save
It would be helpful to have an autosave function for PDFs being used in Revu. Currently this does not exist and would be very beneficial.
Alert attendee log
It would be great be able to see to whom and when the "alert attendee" has been done. Today you can see exactly who and when markups has been accepted but there are no info at all if a markup has been alerted to someone.
Keyboard Shortcuts for Assigning Statuses
It would be a huge time saver to have keyboard shortcuts for assigning markup statuses. Numerous workflows (e.g. QA/QC and design reviews, punch/back-check) involve multiple status changes for markups, and often times there are multiple statuses (or state models) to choose from. On large projects, with 100's if not 1,000's…
Numbered Lists and Bulleted List
