*** Bugs
+**** The event loop relies on polling and that hurts performance.
+ A better strategy is to have the select part in its own thread and let
+ the main thread communicate with that thread (see how Gdk does it for
+ inspiration). A problem is that redraw don't happen during resize,
+ because we can't break out from the NSapp loop during resize.
+ There is a special trick to detect mouse press in the lower right
+ corner and track mouse movements, but this does not work well, and is
+ not scalable to the new Lion "resize on every window edge" behavior.
+
**** (mouse-avoidance-mode 'banish) then minimize Emacs, will pop window back
up on top of all others
this.]
** Rewrite make-docfile to be clean and maintainable.
+ It might be better to replace it with Lisp, using the byte compiler.

** Add an inferior-comint-minor-mode to capture the common set of operations
offered by major modes that offer an associated inferior
For use by sml-mode, python-mode, tex-mode, scheme-mode, lisp-mode,
haskell-mode, tuareg-mode, ...
-** Make SYNC_INPUT the default. [true since 2008-03-11]
- All loops using immediate_quit need to be checked to ensure that
- C-g can interrupt them, in case of an infinite loop. Once we
- switch to using SYNC_INPUT, we can remove the BLOCK_INPUTs in the
- allocation functions (allocate_string etc.) without worrying about
- data munging.
-
** Add "link" button class
Add a standard button-class named "link", and make all other link-like
button classes inherit from it. Set the default face of the "link" button
class to the standard "link" face.
+* Wishlist items:
+
+** Maybe replace etags.c with a Lisp implementation.
+http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2012-06/msg00354.html
+
+** Maybe replace lib-src/rcs2log with a Lisp implementation.
+It wouldn't have to be a complete replacement, just enough
+for vc-rcs-update-changelog.
+
* Other known bugs:
** `make-frame' forgets unhandled parameters, at least for X11 frames.
