    Tramp should be taken out of the list, shouldn't?

Thanks.

    > * Highlight rectangles (`mouse-track-rectangle-p' in XEmacs).

    Already done by CUA, more or less.

This feature is worth making more general.

    Wasn't that done already?

Yes, it has been.  Thanks.

    > * Rewrite make-docfile to something sane.

    What does that mean? In which sense is make-docfile insane?

It would be good if that were a cleaner program.
