Permalink Keyboard shortcut
It is suggested to add a keyboard shortcut that will copy a permalink into the clipboard without the need to point on the link icon. It will make this action simpler for new WME users.
For example pressing a key (e.g. P) or CNTRL+key (after selecting the object/s).by yaacobyy

Automatically turn on UR layer
When an editor sends a request for information to a reporter, the email that the reporter gets says
You can reply using the Waze mobile app, or https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=5&lat ... 42&env=usa (β) in the Waze map editor.When the reporter clicks the link and gets directed to WME, they can't always figure out how to respond because the layer may not be turned on so the UR does not show on the screen for them to see.

[REQUEST] Thoughts on Live closure feature, seg vs node
I brought this up Jan/2015
I think It should be revisited, here is the original forum post link and quote:https://www.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=211&t=125253#p1009107
"some thoughts on Live closure implementation....Seg to Seg closure is great. But if you have a parade route (for instance) you can close an entire street for a mile (say west to east segs). Unfortunatly it has no affect on cross streets (say if you wanted to cross the closed road from north to south on a side street). So...Side streets have to be closed also if they cross your closed segment. Seems to me what's really needed is…

Thanks for this great suggestion.
In the time being we have already developed and launched the closures on nodes. As you were last updated, RTC (real time closures) on turns is still WIP in very early stages with no ETA.

Would you please consider adding a tooltip for the livemap link on the bottom of WME?
