Rates are an okay system, helping a lot in increasing/decreasing the difficulty of a map in order to practice it on lower speed or giving yourself a challenge.

Mirror mod is probably the most important thing I want to see. Not only when it comes to maps with hand bias, it has the biggest importance in 5k and 7k, where players use different thumbs and some patterns are much easier for the other thumb (see [123][45] trills in 5k for example)
However it's critical in 7k+1, and should be diversified to two versions of mirror:
1. Turning the P2 option (SpecialStyle=2) should mirror THE WHOLE CHART, including the scratch, just like P2 in IIDX/LR2. This would keep all the scratch patterning the same as the original chart, instead of just flipping the scratch to the other side as it is now, making many of charts really uncomfortable with outer finger trilling.
2. Mirror mod would just flip the notes WITHOUT flipping scratch to the other side.

The third feature which would be nice would be snap colours, just like in Stepmania, this makes reading for some people easier. If not in the actual game, at least in the editor to make everything more transparent.

Add more mappers so I wouldn't have to play 5 same maps over and over again till I get better for my map pool to increase to 10 maps.

Rates and more scroll speed options should be the priority. Also option for setting the hitposition offscreen would also be a nice addition.

E: Also this isn't mania specific, but leaderboards for unranked maps, no pp or profile notifications, just leaderboards for unranked maps.

Mirror is great, but let's also not forget about S-Random and H-Random seen in IIDX/LR2. The current Random shuffles all lanes. S-Random randomizes every single note. H-Random is like S-Random, but prevents jacks (where possible). All of these mods are great for practicing odd, difficult pattern. S-Random especially helps with practicing jacks.

Rates would be great too, everything between 0.8x-1.4x with 0.1x increments would suit my needs. Regarding HP/OD; I'd rather just have a more punishing lifebar at lower levels of HP. HP 10 is already really unforgiving, but anything below 8 is a joke.

I think rates is probably something that needs to be implemented for mania. Coming into mania, I assumed that it would have different rates just from my experience with other rhythm games

personally, I think rates, harsher OD, and 3d playfield would be very nice. I suck at accuracy but od10 doesnt really feel all that hard (although hp10 is plenty imo). rates would be nice because almost nothing is playable (and fun) on 1.5x (which is what dt is) and not even some of the hardest and fastest charts I can think of are even a challenge with HT. 3d playfield would be nice because I know lots of people rely on those in stepmania or o2jam U. and more skinning is never a bad thing anyways. mirror would also be nice but honestly I don't think its as high priority as stuff like rates or harsher OD

Basically more options/customization to give a better experience playing the map. Better HP/OD/Scroll speed control is the start of it. For example, I want to play so many maps at 0.9x without needing to use external tools to edit song and map. There is more I would like mania to have, but I will leave it at that.

Features I'd like to be added, which will benefit most players:

1. Note Pattern
- Mirror mod and if it's possible, a 'Panic' mod, which constantly shuffles columns more than random mod. (search for o2jam's panic ring and stepmania's blender). I only hope mirror mod won't make the score unranked when used.

2. Option Menu
- All options including speed and mods all under a menu window. Button settings like ctrl+ and ctrl- will still be retained. This option menu is very helpful for new players who doesn't know all the option available for him/her in osu!mania before selecting a song. The options menu's window style is similar to chat except it comes from above.

3. Force nK mode when playing a song with fewer keys than the mode selected. This mod is very different to the already existing nK mod which affects non-mania native beatmaps.
- With this, you can play 4k songs using 7k(5k, 8k, +) screen and key config. An option to set the alignment of where the note will fall.
Basic alignment settings are (using 4k to 7k example)('alignment' like MS office. LOL :) )
a. Left align - select the first four columns to play 4k chart.
b. Right align - select the last four columns to drop the 4k notes.
c. Center(default) - On key columns 1 to 7, select keys 2-3-5-6 to play the 4k chart.
d. Split A - Use the first two and last two columns of both sides, keys 1-2 and 6-7 to play the 4k map.
e. Split B - Use every other key for 4k play, keys 1-3-5-7 to play 4k.
An advanced option might be viable that includes:
a. Custom/Irregular alignment (e.g. 3 keys on one side and only one key on the other)

4. Others
- Assist tick/clap (when auto play is on) like the ones on stepmania. This is useful for watching autoplay or replays to see how note sounds as played.
- Timing calibration like stepmania has. With this, players only need to play a sample beatmap to adjust song offset based on their timing. Thus avoiding long periods of adjusting the offset and hit position. Manual adjustment of offset and hit position is will still be present though for players who want to do this specifically.

I don't know if this is gonna be a good one but probably allowing SVs to be shown in the editor would be good for me

And of course rates
