And I would add :

(and dreaming a bit, add a true topology break step before all algorithms supposing good topology between polygons :) )

Please address the issue, that currently all fields (not just the fields used as dissolve fields) are maintained. This is very confusing since we do not know whcih values of non-dissolve fields are maintained.

Hi Ger CO, please consider supporting that work, making a roadmap is a thing, implementing it another.

Hi Regis, i understand that implementing is way harder than asking for changes. I have no profound programming background but am willing to dive deeper into that. Can you tell me how to get started?

here is a good start too: https://www.qgis.org/en/site/getinvolved/index.html

By myself I don't code, but I try to help in bugtracker work (far away from Giovanni commitment), long term feature requirements (QEP's) discussions, sometimes translation or documentation. My main work was to find a way to support qgis with fundings at my previous work, and this is a very efficient way. Companies involved are available almost everywhere, and small clear tasks, well identified upstream in tracker or lists are very often not so expensive. Each point of view is valuable in any part of the QGIS (OSGEO in fact) ecosystem. And contributing in one place also sometimes helps having things done in another place ;)
