Orbi 770 Lacking Controls - upvotes needed

This is a call for developers to include some more granular control over the Orbi 770, to include some of the controls seem in previous netgear routers the more upvotes the better please:

Fast Roaming (802.11k/v/r)Helps reduce Wi-Fi bouncing between APs 
Band Steering toggleForces clients to stay on optimal band (2.4 vs 5 GHz) 
Per-band SSID namingUsed for testing roaming & band selection stability 
IGMP Snooping toggleControls multicast flooding, useful for smart home 
QoS (Quality of Service)Prioritizes certain traffic (streaming, voice, etc.) 
Power outputAdjust the strength of the wifi radio 
Client steering controlLets you force devices to specific APs or bands 
Individual device roaming controlsPrevents sticky client behavior 
Individual band controlsGranular control over each Band 
Channel width control for 5 GHzLocking to 80 MHz or 40 MHz instead of 160 MHz 
Wi-Fi DFS toggle (Radar Channel Control)

Helps avoid radar interference on DFS channels
