Allow aliases / automatic text substitution
It would be helpful to be able to prescribe aliases for phrases that I type regularly. For example, if I regularly write "AN" for "Amplenote", I should be able to set up "AN" as an alias for Amplenote. Then, if I search "AN" or "Amplenote", Search should pull up results matching both the actual phrase I typed as well as the alias.

MatjažThat would be great. I like "Obsidian way" of it: [[Amplenote|AN]]

GadwoodIt would be helpful that those aliases are listed under the tag line in the note header and are used to find unlinked mention.

Bill AdminSince there are utilities that can bring about this behavior on every desktop platform (I've had good results with "TypeIt4Me" and "TextExpander" on macOS), I do not foresee us implementing this within the next 12 months, so marking as "Not planned" for the time being.
