The ArcGIS Arcade Playground leaves much to be desired for people want to develop using Arcade.

This is an absolute must! A few times now I have found myself having to create very large, complex expressions (either for AGOL apps, or for Geocortex Workflow 5), and have suffered through having to use this, as it's really the only option to build and test expressions. The inability to resize elements to and create functional space, the lack of debugging abilities when compared to other modern builders make it almost impossible to use, and certainty adds a lot of wasted time when trying to finish projects.
Another small thing that would be nice to see is autocomplete. Most environments offer autocomplete options, and allow you to hit tab to complete. It would just speed up the building process.
Thanks for the suggestions. We're actually in the process of redesigning the Arcade editor and have already made plans for most of these points. Something we don't yet have is the line number in error messages and the autocomplete capability. We'll evaluate these to see how feasible they are for the new editor.
