 Hello,

 One issue that has come up with clients and the ability to apply branding
 to emails consistently across website generated emails. Because plugin
 developers need to implement their own templating for emails.

 Some Woo-commerce extensions use the Woo-commerce system, which is great,
 but some don't. Between contact forms (not WooCommerce related), Orders
 and WordPress emails etc, its quite problematic to implement a consistent
 presentation for emails across the system.

 Another item I've noted - is with my custom apps built previously we have
 used a scheduling system to send system generated emails, this excludes
 delays for very important items like forgotten passwords. But essentially
 all it is, is a database table for to be sent emails, that are sent after
 that point in time. This could also be used as a log.

 I understand this could be setup as a plugin, but if implemented well and
 inline with the desired future functionality of WordPress could be a nice
 addition to the system and could have some small performance improvements
 for requests that generate emails (this is was observed by myself moving
 to this setup with custom apps/sites/software in the past it is now my
 standard in any application of quality).
