Regarding the recent events, and the number of unconfirmed TXs, is it possible to ask for a "Rebroadcast" Button on the different wallets, and a new method in the daemon ? It may be usefull and reduce the amount of demands in the forum about these issues.
I also would like to ask if it is possible to add more tools for price calculations, like the fees/Kb for the transactions. I don't know if it aleready exists in the different clients and wallets, but i know it is not available in the bitcoin-qt and bitcoind, and it would be nice to add them.
Whoever mines the block which ends up containing your transaction will get its fee.

I know, for quite a while, that electrum has had many options for fee setting. Including dynamic fees, fixed fees or manual fees. The dynamic fee option has a slider so you can determine within how many blocks you want the transaction to confirm. (Between 1 and 25 blocks - 1 setting the transaction fee to at least the recommendation for the fee to apear in the next block). I think this is what you mean by more options?

As for rebroadcasting, all you really need to do is keep the input and output scripts the same but generate a new tx id for the transaction. It may therefore be a good idea to use a button for that (if you don't know how to generate a tx id), maybe there's a python or java script of that avaliable that could be used?

Bitcoin Core does allow you to rebroadcast transactions. You use the debug console and use the sendrawtransaction command to send the transaction. Even if the transaction is in the mempool, it will be broadcast again.

As for transaction fees, again, Bitcoin Core supports dynamic transaction fees and allows you to choose your fee. When you send, there is a button labeled Choose next to the Transaction Fee label. Just click that and you get advanced options for transaction fees.

Huh? To rebroadcast, just obtain the raw transaction and use the tools online/your client to rebroadcast it.

Bitcoin Core automatically rebroadcast your transaction unless the user disables it. CMIIW.

Limited in number. Limitless in potential.

All I know is Mycelium wallet has this feature to rebroadcast its transaction made from that wallet, just go to transaction tab then tap the unconfirmed transaction and tap the rebroadcast button. And since I'm using this wallet its really helpful to me when unconfirmed transactions increased.
