-This file is just a place to note ideas about GDM that are maybe
-experimental or not significant enough to report a bug.  Refore
-to http://bugzilla.gnome.org in the "gdm" category for the real 
-TODO list for GDM.
-
- + On Solaris GDM uses /etc/logindevperm (see README.install)
-   and it might be useful to simply make GDM's PreSession and
-   PostSession scripts process /etc/logindevperm directly and
-   not call the library interface on Solaris.  
-
- + Big TODO: Rewrite the slave to be based around a mainloop.
-   So that we don't have to do things directly from signal handlers.
-   Some work has already been started by making the slave use select
-   calls instead of waitpid.  This needs to be extended a bit.  The
-   big issue is things that hang.  We need two things, some better
-   general framework for things that hang and handling signals there 
-   (see daemon/misc.c for solution when using gethostbyaddr in the
-   main daemon).  We also need some way to do something like
-   "sleep(5)" with the mainloop nicely.  We want the slave to still
-   be very synchronous, but just have some small handlers run from
-   within the mainloop.  The one thing that will always cause
-   trouble here is the XDMCP server pinging, I think in this case
-   it would be sane to do the setjmp thing and just ignore the ping
-   if a signal comes, not sure how this will play with the X stuff
-   and if this would completely whack us out.  The other option is
-   to have a separate "pinger process" but that seems to
-   heavyweight.  Another option here is to give up on complete
-   mainloopishness and during pinging set up an alarm or some other
-   polling thing that checks all the mainloops stuff.
-  
- + Resource limits have been implemented into the GDM slaves, but
-   perhaps more could be done.  Always keep eye out for leaks.
-
-Small TODO things:
-
- + If we can't setup PAM display user visible errors and not just
-   syslog stuff
-
- + Languages should be read from available locales.   Right now the code
-   stats each file in /usr/locale, which is slow.  Would be faster to
-   do a readdir on the direction and process them without doing stats.
-
-Perhaps stuff:
-
- + Keyboard layout menu.
- + native utmp/wtmp handling without sessreg
- + xsri like logo functionality
- + Handle all the XFree86 Xserver error thingies, such as No "Display"
-   subsection for etc...
- + Add spacer files.  Files which we can use in case there is disk
-   shortage to write a new xauthority stuff so that someone can
-   actually log on and clean up.  Is this crack?  Maybe.
