I was reminded of this by a thread in r/linguistics, but I can't believe I hadn't submitted this before: I've felt the lack of a gender-neutral pronoun for people for many years. There are various alternatives around, but none of them are completely satisfactory, IMO. In particular, I don't think any of them work that well when you're talking about a particular person whose gender you ought to be able to identify, but can't for whatever reason.
People have been trying to invent this word for hundreds of years without success, but I have faith in you, r/neology. Have at it!
As GuyWithNoEyes pointed out the first time I tried posting this, the "for people" bit is key.
