OK I'll bite.
I want my FD to shift precisely, no play, no shimmy, ideally, minimum pressure/minimum travels from my fingers and BAM! (like feathertouch electronics controls or as close as one can get), and pressure to my fingers is to remain constant, so no slack-then-hard.

If OP has a tripple, never mind, I digress, am out!
