> I was looking at the file etc/TODO in the repo, and some items there caught my attention. For example, under 'Important Features' I found 'Add an "indirect goto" byte-code'. Is this still a desired feature
That file is a bit misleading. Adding a byte-code is easy; modifying the compiler is more work, and so is deciding what byte-codes to add and what they should look like.
I'd even go as far as saying that etc/TODO isn't necessarily a catalog of where new contributors should best direct their efforts.
Why don't you think of something that you personally would like Emacs to do that it currently does not, or doesn't do well enough? Or fix something that annoys you daily in your work? Such issues are never in short supply, and your time addressing them would be well-spent.
