So I'd atleast like 1 more hotbar in this game, even if it only comes up when on a mount for "Mount Controls" such as hot-Keyes for Stimulants, potential special abilities, other pet commands, ect. This would be especially useful for once they add the Advanced Whistles and Creature Grouping for controlling groups of creatures without commanding your entire fleet. First off, have the hotbar movable to any of the 4 edges of the screen. Then here are my suggestions for default hotkeys for the new hotbar and commands
Ctrl+1 through 0: Activate secondary hotkeys on the secondary hotbar.
Ctrl+Alt+1 through 0: Assign currently "Following" creatures to cooresponding group.
Alt+1 through 0: select that assigned group
(User defined) "Whistle Command: Go To": command selected group to go to target location. Could be used to bait wild dinosaurs to come closer without risk of getting yourself killed, could also be used by skilled players to coordinate ambushes by hiding groups of raptors behind rocks, trees, ect. Or to tell your passive creatures to run to a distance far away to avoid getting eaten while you deal with the threat.
Num Lock: "Auto-run" causes you to run on a straight line. Be careful to watch for threats or stamina loss. Could be risky but would be very helpful to people driving rafts or high stamina fliers.
(User Defined) "Whistle Command: Go Home!" Causes all tamed creatures following you to go back to your pre-determined "Home" (within 20 foundations of last bed used). This could be used to send your newly tamed creatures to a safe location while you finish taming others. This DOES NOT prevent them from being eaten on thier return journey, however they will still obey thier current Aggression Settings incase they are to be attacked, (passive creatures will attempt to sprint faster (20% for a few seconds after being hit).
Additional Hot-Bars and Hotkeyes.
Re: Additional Hot-Bars and Hotkeyes.
++ to basically adopting the RTS method of group creation and selection. Man, I'm so tired of having to use T to get everything but the bird to follow me

Re: Additional Hot-Bars and Hotkeyes.
I hot keyed 7 buttons on my keyboard for the current whistle controls, works great, but currently my only method of grouping is to force a group to follow a particular mount. Like my Scorpions follow my doed, my sabers and wolves follow my main wolf, and all my raptors follow my Trex. But I have to be on that mount to control that group. It's pretty annoying, especially when trying to launch commands through a spyglass.
