do not remember me (my email and password) automatically when I register, but rather offer it as an option (“Keep me signed in” checkbox).
I’m a news junky and in order for me not to get constantly distracted by checking news, my wife lets me to check the reader at night, entering with her password, which I don’t know (we have only one computer). This is impossible with the current TOR because it remembers me/her instantly, and whenever I enter theoldreader.com, I am immediately led to my account with all the subscriptions.

Improve Multilingual Search
Currently searching functionality in Japanese does not work properly.
For example, Search with the keyword '東京'(Tokyo), the search result shows the feeds which contain any of '東' or '京'.
Please improve this functionality to get correct search result.

Allow for interface customization
Either provide some flexible options (colors, fonts, text size, etc.) or open source it for modification. I find the default interface a bit hard on the eyes and would like to tweak, at the very least, colors and text sizes.

.. bigger preview pictures for youtube feeds (like it was in google reader).
But please do not use the actual video as feed content like "feedly" did since that takes much too long to load if you only want to quickly look through your feeds.

'Mark All As Read' option in Search
I use the search function as a way to filter undesirable posts, but unfortunately the 'mark all as read' option isn't available in the search mode. It forces me to manually click on each and every article I want to delete from my feed. It's impractical and tiresome.
Please make 'mark all as read' possible within the search function.

while you reading a post (aka A) and then scroll up and click space, you get a post (the top one you can see) that you just read expanded

Google Calendar feed coming through in German
Looks like you are stripping the "?hl=en" from the end of my Google Calendar feed and instead adding "?max-results=25". For whatever reason, this is making the "Where/When/Description" labels to get posted to The Old Reader in German rather than English.

List View Bulk Action: Mark Some as Read
When in List View, I would love to have little check boxes so I can do a bulk action, marking several posts as "Read" at once WITHOUT losing all the other posts. Please?
Bloglines has this feature, but it doesn't have Search (that I've been able to find). You have Search, but no bulk action (unless I want to mark everything as read, which I don't!) If only I could find a reader that had both...

A quick way to switch between show all feeds and show only those with unread items
Google reader used to have this. It is much more convenient then going to a different page, changing an account setting, going back again to do whatever you wanted to do with your feeds, then loading up the settings page again and changing the account setting back. Please consider fixing this. Thanks very much for the hard work.

Zoom articles with + and - (change font size)

Access to "liked" posts thru API
I'm using gReader Android app. Since closure of google reader I'm looking for replacement which is supported by my app and has decent web interface. Yes, TOR has most readable and usable interface in my opinion, and what is most important - lightweight when compared to "creply floud". And it works well with gReader, except that, citing gReader's author: "API doesn't support marking as starred (liked) yet". So I politely ask - is this will be ever supported?

Ablity to hide article attachments or set not to display them inline
On some feeds, there are inline images in news body, but also same images are attached to news item as attachment. TOR displays those images in news body, as it should, but also displays same image as inline attachment to article. In result, I can see something that looks like duplicate images in articles.
Example feed: http://gazeta.pl.feedsportal.com/c/32739/f/576334/index.rss

Put a "mark all as read" button at the bottom of the list of posts.
If there are a lot of long posts it takes a long time to scroll all the way back to the top on Android.

Push notifications
It would be awesome if old reader would send push notifications to mobile phone so you would get feed news as soon as they happen (or at least as soon as reader checks them).
Or maybe add some sort of API for it. After quick glance, I can see it can only retrieve data by polling.
