 THINGS TO DO
 ------------
 
+** `tool-bar-mode', `scroll-bar-mode', `menu-bar-mode' and
+   'fringe-mode' are modes global to the entire Emacs session, not
+   just a single frame or a single terminal.  This means that their
+   status sometimes differs from what's actually displayed on the
+   screen.  As a consequence, the Options | Show/Hide menu sometimes
+   shows incorrect status, and you have to select an option twice for
+   it to have any visible effect on the current frame.
+
+   Change Emacs so that the status of the items in the Options |
+   Show/Hide menu correspond to the current frame.
