It is a dangerous design.

** Make keymaps a first-class Lisp object (this means a rewrite of
keymap.c). What should it do apart from being opaque ?
** Highlight rectangles (`mouse-track-rectangle-p' in XEmacs). Already in CUA,
but it's a valuable feature worth making more general.
-** Support simultaneous tty and X frames. [See the multi-tty branch of Emacs
- at http://lorentey.hu/project/emacs.]
-
** Provide MIME support for Rmail using the Gnus MIME library. [Maybe
not now feasible, given Gnus maintenance decisions. fx looked at
this and can say where some of the problems are.]
** Add a --pristine startup flag which does -q --no-site-file plus
ignoring X resources (Doze equivalents?) and most of the
environment. What should not be ignored needs consideration.
+ [Do the existing -Q and -D cover this, or is more needed?]
** Improve the GC (generational, incremental). (We may be able to use
the Boehm collector.) [See the Boehm-GC branch in CVS for work on
** Provide an optional feature which computes a scroll bar slider's
size and its position from lines instead of characters.
-** Add support for SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) rendering to

+** Possibly add a "close" button to the modeline.
