Right now the Telerik UI MVC NuGet package is a 30 MB package that installs not just the DLL, but a lot of boilerplate JavaScript and CSS. I prefer to acquire the necessary content via Bower, so I can only install what I need.

Currently, after every upgrade I have to wait for the package to install, then delete all of the unused content files. It would be nice if you supplied an "assembly-only" package, moving the content into an optional package that users who still need it could install. It would reduce upgrade time substantially, as well as offer less chance for a mistake.

in the option from Grid this feature is missing

The current Kendo UI Grid does not offer support for external form editing of Grid records.  But competing companies offer support for this already as follows: http://demos.devexpress.com/MVCxGridViewDemos/Editing/ExternalEditForm

It would be great if the Kendo UI Grid also offers this functionality.

need a week number functionality in Kendo datepicker

Add the ability to display aggregates of non grouped columns in the group header.

When you export a sheet to Excel the Sheet is export as not-protected.  If there are cells that are locked then the user can edit them.  It would be really useful if you could specify tha a sheet were protected and when the sheet is exported it would be protected with a password.

If I have a field defined as @Html.Kendo().TextBoxFor(m => m.Customer.CustomerNumber) then my complex property in my model will be correctly used. If however if add a name value i.e. @Html.Kendo().TextBoxFor(m => m.Customer.CustomerNumber).Name("CustNum") so that I can reference this field in javascript then this name takes precendence as the property name and as such the property in my model is not used. If we are using the 'For' version of an input field where we have already identified the property can this take precedence over using the Name field. That way we can simple names for use in the Javascript and yet still use complex properties.

Your HTML Helpers generate fairly simple HTML and javascript ... but its not easy to read because it is somewhat minified (at least it has no indentation). It would be nice to set a flag somewhere to enable a pretty print option. I assume you have something like that internally anyway?

I have data that is in RTF format to be able to format font the way the users want with links, etc.  To show that on a kendo grid is touch.  had to create/find a regular expression and do some special formatting for the links.  You currently only have editing for HTML

It would be nice to be able to assign a unique ID to each column to go along with the column's title. Makes it easier to find a column by it's ID instead of trying to find it by title. Especially if the user has reordered the columns.

Kendo UI MVC server-side wrappers are much more easier to work with but not possible to do a full SPA application and UI experience is slow.

Can you come with an idea to allow development using server-side wrappers but then deploy application as client-side SPA converting  server-side wrappers to client-side SPA code?

It would be nice if the traditional HTML helper interface could be augmented with tag helpers for some of the simpler widgets. Dropdowns, date pickers, buttons and the like could all be good candidates for tag helpers.

Please add support for your own ORM in the MVC scaffolding.

The tools should have all the options as the javascript for example: Gantt custom views can only be used if you use the JavaScript version.  The lack of full support defeats the point of buying a MVC wrapper.

Currently, you can accidentally click on the "X" when clicking on a spreadsheet  tab, which is very easy to do, and it instantly is deleted with no warning and no way to get it back.  

This is a serious problem for me, as I don't know of a workaround.  Suggestions:

1) Add a "Tab Deleted" event so that you can catch this and optionally cancel it.
2) Honor Workbook Protection in Excel so that you could prevent the tabs from being deleted.

Thanks,
Mark

When upgrading to Kendo MVC, the existing method renames the folder inside the kendo folder instead of the files.  This method of upgrading applications breaks them every time.

The MVC Bundle.config allows the use of the wildcard {version} for version changes.

Why not use this system instead of the upgrade method you use?

Would be great to limit the Locale files and / or make them specific to the locales you are actually using. e.g. only EN-NZ or EN-US

Probelm: 

Filterable Grid with a cell-type "number".
When this Cell will be filtered for the "number"-cell with the value "20", the value will automatically change to "20,00".
In order to remove this behaviour, you will have to asign a whole new kendo ui numeric textbox. (which is a littlebit too much).

Wouldn't it be better to asign a new cell option in the grid to avoid this problem?

I'm using NumericTextBox in ASP.NET MVC now, and I don't see it support Mouse Wheel like control for ASP.NET AJAX?
