1. Here's a list (along with other, non-power suggestions), though I don't believe it's entirely up-to-date 
2. I wouldn't say so. This year we're getting 4 new sets by July, and I believe we've gone a full year without getting a single one. It varies.

Enhancement diversivication was a player suggestion/request?
Travel suppression was a player suggestion/request?
You didn't used to have to type the character's name to delete the character? Yikes!
And to answer question #3: I do, and yes, I'd like to see more even though I haven't checked out all the ones they just added. Still hoping for a craftable jet pack.

I would like the recipe to be a different pack though. They have:
Raptor Pack
GoldBricker Pack
Jingle Jet
Pay-Card Pack
that all have different graphics. But all temp powers, stores, and now the recipe only give the one raptor pack? And the one time I did the redside mission to get a skyraider pack, it looks just like the raptor pack too. Total let down.

Only Fly had a combat penalty before suppression. I think we had -50% to our to-hit so we who loved flying had cooked up lots of ways to switch between fly and hover using keybinds.
Then PvP was added and people discovered they didn't like getting jousted by superspeeders. The NPCs had been quiet about the unfairness of it for the first 4 issues but players in the arenas were not (understandably so).
So the devs handed superspeeders and superjumpers the same to-hit or accuracy penalty (I can never remember which is which). They did not like that penalty. So suppression was allocated to them. And to all the fliers who were quite used to the to-hit/acc penalty even though many of us didn't want suppression and hate it to this day.
Then another change not caused by PvP but rather by unfair ability to get badges came to Phase Shift (we used to be able to go AFK phased as long as we managed our endurance consumption). But that is a topic for another day.
<--- Hates suppression still to this day.
total kick to the gut

In the early parts of CoV Beta, Fury was generated by being hit. Ice being a defense set, rather than a resist set, combined with the slows from the auras and ice melee, meant that Ice / Ice Brutes generated almost no Fury. Fury also degenerated a lot faster then, so the Fury that Ice did build was almost impossible to maintain.|

Late in CoV Beta, months after Ice had been removed, they changed the Fury mechanic so that it built when the Brute was attacked (not hit) and when the Brute attacked.
Ice should be acceptable for Brutes under the current conditions, it is just a matter of Castle and crew having the time to tweak the numbers the next time they do a round of Proliferation.
New story arcs coming soon (ARC IDs will be aded when I finish the arc):
So, you want to join the Hellions? (level 1-14 Villainous arc)
Sparks & Steel (level 5-20 Heroic arc)
and
So you want to join the Skulls? (level 1-14 Villainous arc)

See, I can understand players not choosing ice for that reason, or else asking for it to be changed, but I'm not sure why they would demand it be removed. Unless they assumed doing so would cause something else to be added in its place?

Well, a "Are you really sure you want to delete this character?" dialogue box did pop up when you clicked the delete button, so it's not like it instantly wiped them. Not much consolation if you weren't paying close attention of course. |

Still waiting for costume piece backpacks and jet packs. 
Dr. Todt's theme.
i make stuff...
Ok, I have two questions:
1. How many powers have been as a result of player feedback? Kinda curious on that one.
2. Do the Devs do any planning as far as powers go. I believe, and correct me if I am wrong, but usually we are good for 2-3 new ones per year. Is that accurate?
One more question:
3. How many people like the temporary powers, and would like to see more?
