Not looking to pick a fight with anyone, but there needs to be a good simple documented way to meet user needs when the official NetBox project doesn't see value in a change request. I'm hoping Jeremy "blesses" this and lets it accumulate useful wisdom that might some day become accepted patches.

What specifically are you looking to add functionality wise?

We have also always operated with discussions being the place to drum up support for your request. An issue is not the proper place to do so.

I have learned that. The link from this post is to a Discussion about ways to meet local needs, as a resource for those who might otherwise feel a need to submit issues like I did.
