• Breather panels
• Flat colours (black, OD, FDE, etc., for those not interested in wearing camo)
• D-rings (as mentioned several times)
• Sizes for smaller people (I wear pants with 28-30 waist and 30 inseam, and shirts with 34-36 chest, depending on the brand, and although it's not uncommon to find people of my size and build, its still rather difficult for me to find stuff to wear)

Yes. Tan too.

Future models: zip off legs for shorts (but a more comfortable zipper lining), a thin softshell pant like the 5.11 traverse

Some otw shirts in cadpat and arid cadpat would be good, if you could make them with no melt/drip resistant material and at a reasonable price.

Could you get Helikon-tex in Canada? Like Helikon UTP a lot, much better than 511, cannot believe there is no retailer in Canada.

Anyhow for short Asian like 30 inseam.

Model with lower waistband would be great for those of us who are long of leg, short of torso,
with 4-way stretch-y fabric (the type that has 1-2% elastic fibres) which is great for those on the move at work (somebody has already mentioned the 5.11 traverse).

To paraphrase a Canadian clothing chain store:

... classic low-rise (pants) have a little extra room in the seat and thigh to keep you comfortable both at work and on the weekend.
The durable heavyweight (fabric) has a hint of stretch to let you bend and move freely throughout the day.

Biggest annoyance I have with most "casual" tactical pants are itty bitty little cargo pockets that are pressed flat against the leg. They don't have to be as big as BDU pockets, but it'd be nice if they were big enough to be useful, and being expandable is always a plus. The ones on the 5.11 Taclite TDUs are pretty good.

Any pants I buy nowadays are all polycotton ripstop. Like with everyone else, subdued, solid colours are my go-to. Grey would be nice.
