Automatically find files/folders on new machines

There seems to be a recurring theme of what people think Lightroom should do. And what they think it should do is not esoteric. I would like to be able to put original file numbers in my watermarks. When I create a new collection, I would like for the master collection I'm creating the new one in to stay in the middle of the screen instead of disappearing so I can "reel it back in." I get the impression that Lightroom is a very low priority for Adobe.  A majority of posts are regarding file management and simply being able to keep track of things. Software that works well is the result of constant beta testing and user input. Ever try to put a change request in with Adobe? Good luck. I've been told by Adobe customer support where to comment but as a product of the public schools, I had a hard time finding it. Serving their customers, now subscribers, doesn't seem to be a top priority at the big A.
