In the top right corner of the wanted list there is an Indicator of the percentage
of the number parts wanted on the list in relation to the parts owned in the
list.

The list can be sorted among other criteria by "Wanted Qty" or "Have
Qty".
It would be very helpful, if the list could also be sorted by "Still neeede
Qty" (effectively Wanted Qty minus Have Qty).

Thanks,
Mike

This is already an option. On a wanted list page, click the drop down next to
"Sort By" and select "Have Qty". Then you can choose up or down
for the order based on your needs.

Additionally, if you go into a wanted list and next to the search bar click "More
Options". At the bottom of the center section there is a check box to "Hide
Items if Have Qty is = Want Qty".

Nope, and OP said it already: sort by Have only sorts by Have, not by (Want minus
Have).
Example, your list has:
— part A, want = 1, have = 0,
— part B, want = 2, have = 2,
— part C, want = 3, have = 1,
— part D, want = 4, have = 3.

If you sort by Want (descending): D, C, B, A (values 4, 3, 2, 1).
If you sort by Have (descending): D, B, C, A (values 3, 2, 1, 0).
What OP wants (descending): C, (D, A), B (values 2, 1, 1, 0).


  Additionally, if you go into a wanted list and next to the search bar click "More
Options". At the bottom of the center section there is a check box to "Hide
Items if Have Qty is = Want Qty".

That would hide A in the sort by Have (→ D, B, C), or in the sort by Want (→
D, C, B).  None of these orders would be what OP wants (C, D, A, B or C, A, D,
B).

Voted yes if it serves anything...

For the time being you can import your Wanted Lists to BrickStore and sort them
there.
