It took me a while to start using canvases. But now I think they should be a much more common UI pattern. They really shine on large (40"+ non-retina 4k) screens. The simplicity at launch made me feel more confident in using them at all. I don't use most of the other obsidian features/plugins.

What would make it great in your eyes?

Not OP, but I use canvas all the time (Thank you!) in preference to something like Miro because I really value the open format and being able to keep the file. Something that really holds me back is the inability to use different shapes for the nodes - a use case for me is creating flow charts and process diagrams, so being unable to use the standard shapes for those is a challenge.

Still the best option though!

Yeah I agree! In the meantime Advanced Canvas plugin might help:
