- improve smoothing implementation to be cleaner and more efficient.
- make smoothing a separate setting, or depend on fast&ugly.

- automccompleter should vanish when its losing focus
- allow inventory window to be stacked vertically, maybe?
- ganondorf wants the complete to grow, never shrink
- keypad-enter does not do the same as return in text entries

- ice in /whalingoutpost/misc/castle1
  name ice, arch ice, type 0 with fly/walk on/off not handled in move_apply()
- PANGO: create upstream-patch for inclusion into pango
- SERVER: document ext/mapinfo and cfplus.ext
- SERVER: memleak like hell: probably event-related? (probably not real)
- LONG-TERM: party member health etc. status (needs player list, then trivial)
- LONG-TERM: map landmark labels
- LONG-TERM: player on map name

- player speed is only shown as current, not unencumbered max as in gcfclient
- IMPORTANT: stats during item creation == crash? (reported by Grak)
- IMPORTANT: server-protocol/upgrade etc.
- IMPORTANT: good installation instructions/problem faq.
- IMPORTANT: database creation parameters borked - fix and find upgrad epath
- FEATURE: beside the floorbox, have a recent inventory items box
- fix the pod referencing - L<glossary/space> does not get you anywhere.
  * possibly look into auto-marking (wiki-style) certain key sequences.

should be solved/investigated before 1.0 release:
- maybe embed buttons for stuff liek accept-invitation, bind spell etc.
- (schmorp) L<glossary/range slot> not working. L<xx/bbb> should look like bbb. Maybe support // and *?
- when in history "mode", completer cannot access completions at all
- binding keys is too complicated in the general case => disucss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- offer common options such as use_skill sense xxx etc. in inventory via menu?
- buttons should support hovering visually
- notebooks should provide visual feedback (support from button class?)
- floorbox out-of-screen after resizing (schmorp)
- identify inventory hover slowness and fix it (schmorp)
- inventory: maybe drag&drop, otherwise two containers side-by-side makes little sense.
- playerbook/skills should have sensible tooltips with skill descriptions
- error dialog boxes for important errors (try login to 1.2.3.4 and search for the connection timeout message)
- mapmap (overview) - scroll visible area by clicking/dragging
- binding window and editor layout broken for long recordings => use scroller
- maybe open the help viewer on the first start, or a simple dialog that
  initially lists keybidings for gcfclient converts.
- maybe the top fancyframe border should be larger (for close button and title to be more visible?)
- what happened to the dialog being shown when modifiers are pressed, showing
  keybindings for this modifier?

post-1.0:
- Attempt to free unreferenced scalar: SV 0x11f5d98 during global destruction.
  (after starting, press quit)
- currently the font texture cache leaks "memory" (see texcache.c:tc_put)
- when mipmapping upstream data files, run a fatten pass so pixels with alpha=0 don't negatively
  affect neighbouring visible pixels (border bleeding).
- examine etc., should use extendeddrawinfo or sth. similar
- player list from server for tell etc. commands
- save only dirty cached maps, and save dirty maps != current map
- look into extendedmapinfo
- completer should know more about arguments, e.g. cast summon pet monster,
  or that some commands do not take arguments ("drop all").
- sliders do not change size after reconfigure.
- enter runmode when cursor-key repeats (maybe not?)
- maybe use outline fonts/effect for statusbox and floorbox (and health gauge stats etc.).
- performance: use texture collections for upstream server data instead if gobs
  of small textures.
- inventory: maybe always use categories (locked etc.) and let drag&drop decide wether an item is locked or not

TEMPORARY SERVER TODO:
- implement skill_running, level 10 gives you ~speed+1, 100 ~speed+3 or so :)
- palyer peaceful setting should be independen of game peaceful setting
  (i.e. one should be able to become hostile against guards but still
  be peaceful - the palyer peaceful would be toggled by priests and shown
  in who, the game peaceful steting would be toggled by the peaceful command
  but not otherwise shown).
- attempt_jump tries to kick jumped-into monster,s but doesn't work
- 1) If you hide, and someone can see you trying to hide, you'll get a
  message, even when you can't see that other person.
- 2) hiding exp is always 1, independant of how difficult it is to hide
- 3) jumping into monsters does no damage, even though it's supposed to 
  be an attack (mentioned before). You also get no exp for this
- 10) (feature request): bug/typo/idea commands to automatically log
  your comments, with the mentioning of the current map (and perhaps an
  item, if you do 'bug <item>').


   #TODO#d# display texture cache
   {
      glEnable GL_TEXTURE_2D;
      glBindTexture GL_TEXTURE_2D, 41;
      glColor 1, 1, 1, 1;
      glTexEnv GL_TEXTURE_ENV, GL_TEXTURE_ENV_MODE, GL_MODULATE;
      glEnable GL_BLEND;
      glBlendFunc GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ZERO;
      glBegin GL_QUADS;
      glTexCoord 0,1; glVertex 0,0;
      glTexCoord 1,1; glVertex 255,0;
      glTexCoord 1,0; glVertex 255,255;
      glTexCoord 0,0; glVertex 0,255;
      glEnd;
      glDisable GL_BLEND;
      glDisable GL_TEXTURE_2D;
   }

   To achieve a more complete blending, you can have your drawing engine rasterize each transparent object more than once, altering in each pass the blending mode, object alpha channel, and buffer write masks. The first pass should perform RGB blending. Accordingly, you should disable writing any alpha channel or z buffer data during this pass.
   /*first pass*/
   glColorMask(TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, FALSE);           /*disable alpha channel*/
   glDepthMask(FALSE);                             /*disable Z buffer*/
   if (premultpliedTransparency)
       glBlendFunc(GL_ONE, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
   else
       glBlendFunc(GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
   /*render the object here*/

   On the second pass, you should set the frame buffer alpha channel value to (1- a s )(1- a d ). To do this, you need to render the object again, with a different alpha value, as follows:
   /*second pass*/
   glColorMask(FALSE, FALSE, FALSE, TRUE);         /*enable alpha channel*/
   glDepthMask(FALSE);                             /*disable Z buffer*/
   glBlendFunc(GL_ONE_MINUS_DST_ALPHA, GL_ZERO);
   /*render the object with alpha replaced with 1-a*/

   Finally, the third pass should replace the value in the alpha channel with the final value 1-((1- a s )(1- a d )). To do this, you need to render the object again, with its alpha value set to 1, as follows:
   /*third pass*/
   glColorMask(FALSE, FALSE, FALSE, TRUE);         /*enable alpha channel*/
   glDepthMask(TRUE);                              /*enable Z buffer*/
   glBlendFunc(GL_ONE_MINUS_DST_ALPHA, GL_ZERO);
   /*render the object with alpha replaced with 1*/
