Hello Luke,
I hope you have really gone through each point properly mentioned in my previous post and have forwarded to the dev team too. I wish they will surely consider something and sooner.
Below is one another reason and solution for 3rd point. Followed by other issues.
3.3b, Below could be one of the better solution and appealing too, for the Countdown Timer (CT)

The timer can be displayed directly on the image (at bottom) in Grid and Archive pages. With transparency, the image behind CT, can be seen too. And On Mouse-Hover, that CT should get replaced with the “Add to Cart” or “View details” button, as usual. The same can be seen from that video too.
This will even resolve the problem, when the CT is wrapping down in the Woodmart Theme, when used with 4×4 or 5×5 or more Grid value. Even with Product Carousel element.
As the CT in above video (other theme), is getting adjusted according to image size and will retain size-responsiveness across the theme. Which can be accomplished and work in Woodmart also.
But unfortunately in Woodmart, please see how the CT is wrapping down even further with variable widths. And leaving huge empty space in the Grid for other products (which do not have CT). As can be seen here-

PS: With this issue and reason, we could not ENABLE the CT it in Archive pages and with Elements.
Option Presets
4. Options Presets is a Nice feature, however there are few issues while using it. Below are few points and requests, that you may find genuine.
4.a. As this has been placed at extreme right side (like sidebar), the width of each of the 3 columns is very less. Hence, it becomes too hard to find and select the correct Post ID, Term ID, Taxanomy or anything else from the 3rd column (last one after =, not equals)
And when someone have more-and-more pages, categories or products, it will become nearly impossible to do that with just an Inch-of-a-width. Specially with long Titles of posts, pages. One has to keep scroll down, that too way attentively and slowly. Practically with just one single-scroll (even with single mouse click at bottom of the scroll bar), it scrolls too many results at a time.
And the content in 3rd column is NOT readable too (with very less space). Really it feels too much frustrating to use this nice feature, even once. Overall very clumsy space.

4.b. In addition to that, If someone tries to search by ID, it is not showing results at all. Infact, as shown in the video, it throws incorrect results too.
I tried by using Post ID and Term ID both, and searching by actual ID, did not worked.
How can one remember and by what way, that what is to edit and how to search. How can one actually understand.
b.ii). Also, in below scenario-

Alternative or possible Solution and Enhancements–
As already explained and shown in one of the above screenshot-

4.c. If an option to mark Presets as Favourites (with star icon) could be added, then that would be helpful. So that from a long list of presets, one can easily identify (ofcourse with some filter too) and can use and edit it further by relocating it easily.
4.d. Also, a Drag-and-drop feature for Presets. That way, one can put the Most-used or important ones at the very Top. And can arrange others according to their needs. Otherwise, what is currently happening, is the moment we create a New preset, it jumps to the very-bottom of the existing presets list. And we have to keep scrolling Till-end of the existing list, just to find out own or desire Preset, for further edit or for a look.
This is really cumbersome.
Regards
