Any plans for a cordless multi-tool? If so when?

Kev, I feel your pain.  I use a lot of Milwaukee 12 and 18v tools, bought the Fein 18v drill (a beast but I do beastly jobs), and then the HKC and am really trying to resist Metabo, Lowe's is really discounting their 18v sliding chop saw and I have their corded concrete grinder and the concrete saw that will work with a rail.  So many tempting tools looking for excuses to buy.
 
Thank you Tyler, I am sure this is something that will interest most, whatever you can share would be great.
There are certainly ways to poll the user base without revealing what or if any particular product is being considered. I think everyone can realize that even giving a hint as to what is on the drawing board could give the competition a peek or hint as to what's coming and a chance to rush something to market before Festool has perfected their tool or product. As I said before first is not always best.

Is there an idea submission protocol in place that people can use to formally submit tools ideas or improvements?
If yes can you provide a link to the information.

Never mind, answered my own question.

For others here is the URL to the idea submission page.https://www.festoolusa.com/knowledge/ideas-initiative

[member=25351]rst[/member] you won't be sad in you buy the Metabo 18V SCMS ... it's a lovely little thing. I got mine a while back - if I hadn't I would have jumped at a KS60, but if you stick a decent blade in the Metabo it does an absolutely brilliant job. A little bit of detail does feel "Chinese" but the price point here in Oz was a no brainer for me.

Keep clear of the Metabo reciprocating saws .. they're simply awful.
