jlockley,
I'll agree that Corel hasn't been terribly vocal about their interest in Paradox, but I do know that some of their folks do frequent various newsgroups and BBS/forums.
They normally don't identify themselves, unless it's one of their own support forums, but I have seen Corel people lurking--and occasionally posting--to other areas.
I think they'll give any achievable suggestion a fair shake, though it would help to keep their resource limitations in mind, I'm sure.
