What would you like Fender to offer that they do not already?

I'd like to see a Fender amp brake (attenuator?) so I can crank up my Blues Junior without creating the neighbours the opportunity to come round and kick my ***.

I know other companies offer this but I'd like to see something from Fender itself. Most amatuers do not know these things exist as well, and it would create a market and help those teenagers to play hard without being grounded by the parents.

I have tried most of the available attenuators/hotplates and find that while they do what they are supposed to do by allowing you to turn the amp up and keeping the volume level at a bedroom level they also kill the tone.
I believe it would be a mistake for Fender to get involved with making them.

I have read some mixed reviews about how they can kill your tone, and shorten tube life... But maybe they just need a kick in the rear by a company like Fender to raise the bar or show the other manufactures (Marshall, THD etc...) how it is done.

I think they are just amp modulators like the 59 bassman and the twin.

Fender does have an effect pedal Fender Blender Custom Octave Fuzz

I don't know. If an amp company with the reputation of Marshall can't get it right. Can right be done?

A Big fender Multi effects pedal (like the boss gt-8) with tweed covering would be the best thing ever.
