1. GA have very usefull function. Proxmox should use it: guest-ssh-get-authorized-keys, guest-ssh-add-authorized-keys, guest-set-user-password etc.

2. Button in WebUI for manual guest-fstrim action should be added.

3. Info about disks (similar to current network interfaces info)

3. We have good potential here for useful and quick-to-implement actions.
 
Years ago I also thought this would be a good idea, then I moved on to fully automate as much as possible and you get all the information also with your automation tool and are able do things with it. I don't miss the features of GA anymore.
 
ansible and other automations are better because they look from a broader perspective. But as a recovery and diagnostic tool, GA is very effective here.
 
GA can execute arbitrary commands with root/admin privileges.

But I agree with @PSz : for automations/infrastructure as code there are more adequate tools like ansible.
