This is more like 2 features in one.
1. A button in 3dots menu (near print and view headers buttons) to rerun that email through filters again.
2. Dry run mode (Advanced): display which filter would caught and apply which actions.These would allow us to test run filters without applying it to all emails, thus undoing some of the manual organizing we might have done. Dry run mode is a suggestion, but not as important.

Love this idea. I sometimes want to edit the filter for an address, but not sure what exactly I called it months ago. This sometimes requires opening each sieve one by one to see if it is part of some filter.

Filters run for each email once, as soon as it arrives. This is why Sieve language doesn't have support for "filtering only the emails in Foo folder, or emails with Bar tag". That being said, Sieve language allows filtering emails according to "Date" header/metadata. This could be useful in rare cases when someone forwards an old email to you. If you write a Sieve filter to apply to your old emails, you not only need to run it manually, but also end up running against all emails and not only those still in inbox. Sieve is the universal language we use for email sieving, and it is incapable of targeting a rule to emails that already exist in specific folders or tags. Deviating from Sieve standard for such a tiny use case would be big damage to Proton's reputation among heavy filter users.
"Junk" is another word for Spam folder. If you move emails older than 1 year in inbox folder into Junk folder, Proton will interpret that as you no longer want any new emails from those who sent you email a year ago.
That may not exactly what you are intending to do. Even if it is your intention, this can be misinterpreted by other users who thought it was a convenient inbox clean up button, but unintentionally break the behaviour of their mailbox by marking the email addresses from their employers, government, insurance etc as Spam.

This is already possible and can be achieved by filtering emails accourding to the recipient address. But if you don't want to add filter for each individual alias one by one, you can have multiple mailboxes for each purpose, and then create aliases forwarding to different mailboxes, thus be auto added into a filter's catchment.
For example: in SimpleLogin, add yourProtonAddress+shopping@proton.me as a mailbox, and generate new aliases for shopping sites while making sure that you choose your marketing mailbox as the forwarding mail. Create a filter as: if recipient is exactly "yourProtonAddress+shopping@proton.me", do tag "Shopping".
This way you can either catch all emails for a specific purpose, or set up individual filters for aliases.

This feature exist in Sieve editor (advanced mail filter editor), but I would love to see it in simplified editor as well.

This feature existed since late 2023. Wording is not exactly "contains attachments" but is "Has attachments".

Filter by date is already a thing. But not exposed to users in simplified filter creator for few reasons:
1. Filters run once per email as soon as it is received. Which means when the filter is run automatically, the date will end up being `currentdate`.
2. Adding date to simplified interface would cause confusion, and make it not so simplified.
3. Power users who need such filtering can use sieve editor. Sieve is a programming language, and you can useProton's sieve documentation on date: https://proton.me/support/sieve-advanced-custom-filters#vacation
Official Sieve language documentation for date comparisons: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc5260#section-4A site note about the suggested use case: Dumping all the stuff into Archive folder after some time will surely turn Archive into Trash folder without the 30 day expiration. Archive folder is a weird folder, and probably shouldn't even exist.

This was on their roadmap for 2024-2025 winter and has been implemented very early on after the announcement. Both Android Proton Mail app and web mail client do support importing ICS attachments to Proton Calendar as events. This request is already implemented.
If you are getting ICS file which cannot be imported, make sure that it is not in a zip file, or contain incorrect format.

Instead of multiple apps all connecting Proton to Local, we can have Proton Mail Bridge turned into Proton Bridge.
Contacts, Calendar and Drive could be different tabs in Proton Bridge. We have open protocols for each of them, CardDAV, CalDAV and WebDAV respectively.

I advocate for Proton Mail Bridge to be turned into Proton Bridge and implement CardDAV and CalDAV support. This would be a good start.
Drive via WebDAV for large email attachments might be difficult to implement. File upload and download could be easily handled, but getting a share link is the hard part. We would still need to sign-in to Proton Drive on web browser to generate and copy a share link.
On the other hand, a Drive page on Bridge could allow drag-drop of files which then be uploaded to /attachments or /shared folder in Drive, and generate a share link immediately.
For now my work flow is a mix of Proton Mail, Nextcloud Contacts, Proton Calendar, Nextcloud Calendar and Nextcloud WebDAV. It is sad, but it works. Thankfully Thunderbird has an extension for WebDAV support for large file attachments. Sure it sounds counterintuitive to use encrypted mail + plain file hosting, but at least the generated links are encrypted in email body.
Thunderbird extension for WebDAV support: https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-CA/thunderbird/addon/filelink-provider-for-owncloud/

Proton Mail Bridge can be turned into Proton Bridge and include the following features to provide complete local accessibility.
- Mail via IMAP & SMTP
- Contacts via CardDAV
- Calendar via CalDAV
- Drive via WebDAVMail is already part of the bridge, and it would continue to be the core functionality of the bridge. Other features should be toggles.
Drive can be too large to sync for some devices, and may not be desirable. It can be implemented as a storage for uploading files larger than 25 MB and won't fit as an attachments. Uploading to drive would automatically generate a share link which can be pasted into the email.
Thunderbird does support WebDAV storages such as NextCloud via an extension, https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-CA/thunderbird/addon/filelink-provider-for-owncloud/ .
An implementation of this idea with larger use cases would be running selected emails through filters again, as if they were just received. I see how this would make the implementation of dry-run difficult or confusing for some of the users. Maybe drop dry-run to diagnose completely.
