Seriously though.

Any pro keyboard/arranger should have a button section where you can store midi settings for selection of other midi devices, like a good midicontroller keyboard.

Here's a few of my 'must-haves'... (from the G70)

Multi button pedalboard inputs (FC-7). I can't play without these.

Makeup Tools. Best easy editing of ANY keyboard, not just arrangers.

The sliders.

Pianostyle Mode. (no chord trigger until you play 3 notes)

The HB (Hammond) section and the GrandX (piano). Best meat and potatoes of any arranger.

The V-Kits. Best drums of any arranger (in fact, the only kits I use!).

The Song Link, Lyrics Link, and MIDI set Link to UPG.

The bender. (but I'd LOVE a Pitch-strip, too!)

USB, and the Card Slot (much more robust than sticking a USB stick in a port).

The Touch Screen.

You know... Maybe it would just be better if the manufacturers somehow ASKED us before they drop a feature. THEN they wouldn't have to wait until it's too late to find out they made a colossal blunder. Just a thought...

Diki says - "USB, and the Card Slot (much more robust than sticking a USB stick in a port)."

I disagree. USB flash drives are so much easier to work with and cheaper. Look at how USB is handled on the PA800; right up front, convenient and safely out of the way.
