With features, we provide the capability to "convert to requirement" which allows you to turn it into a requirement of an existing feature. This can allow you to bring like-features together.

By not merging the similar Features and moving one to a requirement, you impact downstream systems like TFS. I don't see how the functionality described by the Admin addresses the OP request.

I agree with Jesse Stein on this. We would like to be able to merge features, and have the corresponding ideas linked to both original feature migrated into one list as well.
Should I file a separate feature request for this?
I am not sure the admin response above and "already exists" are the right classification here. When one feature duplicates another and you want to merge the cards, it would be nice to MERGE the information on both cards, keeping one card and deleting the other.
