If there's something I would like to see for Street Fighter 6 it would be an encyclopedia like the one featured in Guilty Gear Xrd, in-game. An encyclopedia featuring things like characters backgrounds, timelines, and a dictionary of sorts that explains terms such as Ki, Satsui No Hado, Psycho Power, Mu no Ken, etc.

Capcom tried to do something similar with the 30th anniversary collection, but the problem is that they used the English versions of the profiles, which come from Western sources. When it finally came out in Japan Capcom just translated those originally English profiles. Even though the original Japanese sources are more detailed and in line with the actual Canon, the Japanese version used the less detailed and more inconsistent English sources. An example of more accurate sources would be the CFN profiles.

Capcom obviously has the capabilities to do something like this right.

And before anyone starts asking, I don't think it's too soon to start talking about SF6. Capcom themselves said they would support SF5 until 2020.

EDIT: another thing SF6 could benefit from is, without a doubt, better PR. Just look at Monster Hunter World, or the launch trailer for the Capcom Beat 'Em Up Bundle. Heck, even things such as Haggar's letter to Cody, Falke's report and G riddle/hidden message count as PR done right. It goes to show that, when Capcom actually cares, they can do things right.

Just look at this.

This video was made by a fan, taking what Capcom already did and giving it is own twist.

Can you imagine someone with budget, resources, and direct insight from Capcom pushing forward with all that? The creative spark is there, they just need to mine it and utilize it more.

Oh, and do not release a glorified beta at full price. Now that's something SF6 could definitely benefit from.
