Currently, the title of the idea, the rationale, the proposes solution are listed one by one. So a page may contain fewer ideas. Many many may not go to next page and see the older ideas.
May a moderator doesn't understand my idea and thinks it's already implemented or an duplicate of another idea - but real it isnn't. Give us the option to reopen our closed ideas and claim duplicate notes.

The Ubuntu community has contributed 17279 ideas, and it is quite difficult to navigate in. Cause some ideas are too old and already embodied. Other are fruits of our lack of attention.
And so we have more duplicated ideas every day.

Make the menus pinnable as used in Geoworks. The menus can be locked so they don't disappear after item is selected from drop down list. Once locked the menu can be moved anywhere on the screen. Great for use in graphics programs.Should be global. This was one of the best features of Geoworks and a big flaw in Windows.

Won't implement
What if we made a special Ubuntu (or at least a fancy program) to have a voting system right inside the OS where you vote for features and such in a visual way such that people really understand what is being presented.
Also it would get a lot more wide spread a vote thus be both more democratic and scientific since sometimes it is the most popular idea that is correct but not always.
It would be only for a few (maybe more) key changes such as using one program instead of another to or using one art system or one menu system or maybe more then one.
Personally I would go for a virtualization on top which simulates the various choices in a way that makes it easy to tell the differences between the options.

Not an idea
There are some good ideas that are not implemented yet and that should be noticed to ubuntu team (at least to know whether there will could be implemented or not)

My thing is this, i try to copy something "not just one thing but few, Ctrl key pushed" i actually can do it in Pics (most often), Music (most often), Movies (most often), Other files (most often), but when i go and open a text file, then it depends on the program.
And the problem is that some programs actually can do this (not in right order tho) and some cant.
i got 2 Questions on those who actually create Ubuntu (thank you for your work) but...
Q.1 is that, can you make the Ctrl key work in the Ubuntu everywhere not just in "some programs"? Q.2 and can you try to make it so that in everything ppl copy (with ctrl pushed) can be paste'd in same order that they were copied?
I mean that if you need to copy+paste text that you could do it word by word in your chosen order?
Lets say i got text:
"i love my mom and i love my dad and still i got love for some ubuntu"
I could first copy word mom then dad then love and paste that that would paste text "mom dad love" so that the Ctrl knows in witch order you copyed them?

I know others have made suggestions under the label "Ubuntu Social" (7730,17696,23642,25108,...) but what I'm about to suggest, though still 1/2-baked, is somewhat different and only really capable (IMO) through a major distro and custom, signed, secure, packages.
I realize that my notion is similar in spirit to
Idea #23642: ""Social from the start" must not strengthen the burgeoning online monopolies". To which I added my own response.
And is another voice saying similar to
Solution #4: Make each and every ubuntu machine social! - skip the need for websites!
Written by Blinky the 16 Feb 10 at 12:03.
Considering that Blinky got -51 votes, I imagine this suggestion will probably not fly far either.
But I would like to take it a step further, making the online monopolies irrelevant. As snooping grows, as .coms
kowtow to .gov, the REAL ISSUE is not Socializing as much as it is protections to privacy, data integrity,...
which all social sites cannot guarantee (ref: wikileaks).
The purpose of this suggestion is firstly to decentralize our social 'footprint' from all websites like FB; the second is to promote Linux generally and Ubuntu in particular as the OS/distro whose awesome app encourages users to migrate away from Windows.
The first purpose is to operate in a secure medium (GPG/SSH/SSL) and have full control over our content or data; as it would reside on localhost AOT someone else's server. No more data-mining, ads, etc..
Please note that this is just off the top of my head, but I believe that the next big thing (NBT) can be decentralization of the social web; somewhat like P2P; provided that computer users can run both clients AND servers (just not public-facing servers)

When posting an idea or solution on Ubuntu brainstorm the boxes you use to type your solution use a fixed font. When you submit, the result is shown in variable width font. This can be annoying when you want to use some text art to clarify your idea for example:
