Once maptext backgrounds are supported, it would be nice to have a simple replacement for alert(). I have made my own system for this, but it would be much more accessible and intuitive to have it built in.
I agree. I've actually been dealing with this recently in my projects. The interface has its ups and downs, but I hate the default BYOND alerts and inputs; they make me think of old out of date BYOND games from before 4.0.

The only perk I ever see to them is how easy they are to implement, but that means nothing to a good developer because the graphical downsides outweigh it.

That system example shows one of the options for getting around this, and I know there are a few, but a native method would be extremely beneficial in my opinion.
