A nice feature would be that in the Relationship Matrix, you can select "any" in the list of relationship types.
It would then show all relationships that exists between the elements in the Source and the elements in the Target.
My use case:
- we work with multiple people on the same project, sometimes people use a different type of relationship to model the same. In our case it's in BPMN diagrams where you can link an activity to a datastore. You can use for that an DataAssocation or DataInputAssocation or DataOutputAssocation. When I could select in the Relationship Matrix to just show me any relationship between Source and Target, I would be able to check if I have for every output data store also an input data store. I know that modeling guidelines should be followed, but it's not always the case when you work together on the same project. This new feature would be very helpful to analyze our models.

Maybe also allow multi-select of connector types, and present the user with that selection of connectors when trying add a new connector.

Here is another:
http://sparxsystems.com/forums/smf/index.php/topic,30219.msg220720.html#msg220720
that asks for improvements of the relationship matrix.
Also handling of stereotyped links is not there.
From my perspective, instead of selecting individual types for source, targets, links, …; possibilities for some kind of queries would be very helpful.
