2. When exporting a collection, make sorting the fields by alphabet optional

   At this moment, one can only select or deselect fields, but one cannot pick any field order other than alphanumerically sorted. I would at least expect 'collection order', but taking this even a step further, it would be awesome if the export fields could be reordered in any order.

3. Save export CSV configured fields in favourite query

   In case of exporting the result of a find query in a CSV file, at the moment (v. 1.36.4) we need to select which fields we are interested at the first time and in case of reuse of the favourite query we need to select these fields again.
   In fact, in the default behaviour, all fields are selected from the sampled result in the CSV exporting process.

   One way could be to save the selected fields from the CSV export configuration in the favourite query settings.

   Other ideas?

   Thanks.

4. Feature Request: Add simplified parallel insertion command syntax

   I want to have a (maybe per server) setting dialog where I can enter a custom JS function that returns any of the mongoDB supported datatypes for the primary key (_id or id - usually String, ObjectId or NumberLong) and is then used everytime I insert a new document in mongoDB compasst.

   Context

   I was testing deduplication functionality I implemented in my app and I had to repeat the process several times. As my IDs were UUIDv4 strings, I needed extra steps after duplicating the documents with the duplicate button on the document in the preview list because otherwise the mongoDB Java driver would throw Exceptions on deserialization attempt.

   Possible Implementation

   Add a new section in the server settings area where I can enter the code.
   Required fields:

   "Default id field name" -> suggest either "_id" or "id"
   Id generator: choose one of
   ** ObjectId
   ** UUIDv4 (String)
   ** TinyUUID / KSUID / other common types (e.g. https://github.com/segmentio/ksuid) -> as String
   ** NumberLong (automatically queries the max(id) and adds 1000 for the next ID to use - for more resilience when there is an app writing new documents while you also manually add a document)

5. allow updating of data via "add data", by importing an updated file

   Right now if you export data, modify it, then try to import it, it will throw an error because the ID already exists. I want to update all those documents, not create new ones.

6. Mongo to recognize arrays during import

   Mongo is unable to recognize arrays, even from it's own exported documents that are manually formatted as arrays. The options available are not compatible with complicated datasets with more than one column that contain arrays. This should be standard.

7. restrict export access

   Compass currently allow any user to export data to his local file system, I think it's necessary to add restrictions so that the admin user can specify which user can or can not export data

8. Checkbox to deselect all fields when importing csv files

   When importing csv files, I did not find the checkbox to deselect all fields. There were 60 fields, I needed just two of them. I had to click 58 times to deselect the not needed fields.

9. Deal with Lat/Lon Pairs in CSV/Tabular imports.

   When importing tabular data with separate columns for Lat/Lon geospatial data, MongoDB Import should be able to automatically rebuild these into GeoJSON compliant structures.

10. Compass got stack without errors info (over 10 min)

    Better error reporting for the user. Importing a json (a valid file) puts the compass in an infinity loop without any error info for the user what is wrong. Values are not stored. App doing importing over 10 min simple file structure, I stoped on end the process.
    I found on end that json should to be in collection format (just with {} brackets). I added standard content with [] (example of the file is below). Improve validation.

    I used 1.21.1 (stable) version of mongodb compass for mac
