It is already possible to assigned footprints in schematic. Le the other developers look on your requests that they will be in better position to understand it.

I think it's easier to edit the schema in python , that's why I already
wrote those scripts.
When I start a new project I draw the schema and give every every
component a value.
I think just to write ?Ohm or so is confusing in the end.
What I wanted to request as features was :
- BOM-generator with the possibility to specify the fields to export and
group References
   if all the exported fields match.
- BOM-importer (set fields of References to theyr BOM-value)
- Possibility to manage footprints in schemata (or is this already
possible?)
