I’m curious as to you guys opinions. It could be Mastodon itself or a Mastodon client. What features would you like to see that are not currently available?

Ah is that so? My mistake then.

It's stupid that it's not there, though, and I suspect it will get fixed at some point. Basically, some concerns were raised about people using it to doctor timelines (but they can already do that by setting up a single-person instance and messing with the database), and the new instance can validate the signatures of the posts anyway, so they're no less secure than posts from other accounts received via federation. If anyone is really concerned they could slap an "imported from ..." banner on old/migrated posts so people are aware they were not originally posted there.
