Maybe I haven't looked hard enough for these but off the top of my head:

- A universal calendar I can merge across client accounts. As a consultant, I have customers in gsuite, o365, and my personal one and relationship management means manually synching my calendars between them.

- A virtual machine for android phones to sandbox identities and apps into, as I'm not interested in letting a client's MDM near my BYOD mobile.

- A userspace version of Paralells with a linux image that runs on enterprise client's locked down windows thinkpads.

- a Cypher-like graph query language that operates as an abstraction over spreadsheets.

- an excel plugin that de-dups rows and generates Sankey diagrams from selected columns.

On that second point. I think you can achieve with androids work profile, Shelter[1], and a firewall app like Netguard[2]. I recently came across a guide[3] to FOSS your android and improve privacy, and it included this method.

Wow, thanks for that guide! Super useful, I've been needing some guidance like this
I’ve been keeping an eye on freetime (https://getfreetime.app/) for the first issue in your list. No O365 support yet though.
