Below is an extract of the bug/feature request that have been posted to this group. It's possible, even likely, that I've missed some, but this is most of them. I start off with various things *I* consider "bugs" (listed mainly in order of what I consider importance), and then go on to the various additional features people have requested. Additional features are /mainly/ in a fairly random order, but I start off with what I consider some of the more important ones.
