  We have a long list of things we're working on.  The priorities depend on usefulness, ease of implementation, and how complex it is to do.

  But as always, this is an Open Source project.  If everyone sits around and does nothing, it goes nowhere.

  If someone sends a patch, it's much more likely to get integrated.  Or, if people *contribute*, it lowers the dev teams workload, and makes it more likely that a new feature can make it in.
