I waiting for Zorin 17 the same like next years merry christmas and Santa Claus when you wishpering a wish for suprise.
Zorin 17 propably will be huge suprise with newest software and kernel. 
also more desktop enviroments.
It will be great with more layouts.
It will be nice in Zorin 17 if it exist most popular software what people using on any device.
Komorebi is a memory hog. I think either Storm or Bourne gave a better way of doing it in Tutorials section.
Zram it could be nice it is exist in two distributions.
Make it so this selected Zorin Appearance Layout has a searchable field in the Zorin menu as all the others include a built-in search when clicking the 'Windows-start-like' Zorin menu button.
Agreed. I've always been a bit confused by the usual 'Power Saver / Balanced / Performance modes' on Windows though. Who selects 'balanced'?... I kinda want performance... I kinda want to save power... not too fussed about either... 
Usually a 'power saver/restrict performance' or something more descriptive about what it's actually doing would be good - I'd turn that on when I'm worried about power bills or the fans getting loud.
Also, on that feature, I'd suggest to avoid having power profiles linked to standby/screen off like they often are on Windows. I might be alone on that thought though? I usually choose 'performance' and then manually set the standby/screen off to be a short time like 5 mins separately as there's not much penalty for standby - computers resume near instantly these days.
"Miracle" and "Paradise". 
The Zorin 17 if will be created on base a debian not Ubuntu could be like a Debian on first place? Then two version Zorin-Debian and Zorin-Ubuntu.
Having two versions of the same product that do the exact same thing is, in my opinion, a mistake. Splitting efforts like that is simply more work for very little gain, if any. Personally I like the idea of having a Debian based Linux Mint, as well as ZorinOS. But I think that even better than that is having something that works and works well, so I'm all in for whatever the developers are most comfortable with to continue to improve the product.
But even if Zorin were to become Debian based, it's unlikely to be in the next release which is just around the corner.

Well your point is good why creating some clone linux if Zorin could be diffrent with another distributions where people can choice.
I am wondering what suprise will be in ZOrin 17.
I mean what we get in this version.
Something what kick "sitting a part body" and will back to top 10.
Curious and propably many people will be testing new version.
To stand against the improvements introduced in Win10 (Only focusing on improvements and not those things that are a detraction):
Zorin OS 17 should consider

I would like to see Kernel 6.1 LTS
I don't have Zorin currently installed cause I need newer Kernels and packages, so I don't know on what Kernel Zorin is right now.
All in all a little bit snappier/faster
And I would like to see auto-cpufreq out of the box (longer battery live for Laptops)
Is it already possible to upgrade from one Major Version to the next?
If not - this as well
Well one good options if Zorin is dedicated on debian resources then in Debian is option when installing that distro we can choose only drivers in kernel hardware what you have connected, that is great not installing any another things what could be heavy for pc.

I would like to have the option to choose a real-time kernel for Audio-Production.
ZorinOS themed apps for libadwaita apps.
I never noticed that... no real-time kernels. Perhaps you can run the low-latency kernel, and tune its parameters.
Some RT tuning utilities:
tuna/focal 0.14-1build1 amd64
Low-level system performance tuning for realtime systems
adjtimex/focal 1.29-10 amd64
kernel time variables configuration utility
rtkit/focal,now 0.12-4 amd64
Realtime Policy and Watchdog Daemon
schedtool/focal 1.3.0-3 amd64
Queries/alters process' scheduling policy and CPU affinity
Here's the Ubuntu RT patches... not sure if they'd work with Zorin, though:
https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/
Yes, that's what I meant: low-latency kernel.
Yes, it works, I did it that way or something similar. It would just be nice if I had the option to select during installation.
- Flatpak permission system: Flatseal integrated in Settings
- Zorin Appearance & Connect inside Settings
- Most third party apps don't get corners rounded at bottom, pls fix it
- Better default touchpad gestures
