Yes, but before that has any chance of happening, Someone™ should step
forward to help maintaining the Windows build, because lately that
eats up almost all of my free time, leaving just barely enough for
fixing redisplay related bugs. I have no time left for developing
significant new display features. As just one example, I wrote code
to support drop-down menus on TTYs, which eats dust on a local branch
awaiting testing since June(!), because I have no time to spend on it.
