 -------------------- Known bugs and current work -----------------------
 Include src/po/vim.pot ?
-If there are no complaints, remove more typecasts from vim_strnsave() length
-argument.
 Vim9 script:
 Making everything work:
+- assignment to script var should check type
+- Compile: let [var, var] = expr
+share code for :let between compiled and uncompiled?
+- do not allow "let g:var = value", must drop "let"
 - possible memory leak in test_vim9_func through compile_nested_function.
 - memory leaks in test_vim9_expr
 - memory leaks in test_vim9_script
 - Test that a script-local function in Vim9 script cannot be deleted.
+- Check that when sourcing a Vim9 script, only the global items can be used.
 - Make "true" and "false" work in vim9script
 - Test that a function defined inside a :def function is local to that
 function, g: functions can be defined and script-local functions cannot be
 defined.
 - make 0 == 'string' fail on the script level, like inside :def.
 - Check that when using a user function name without prefix, it does not find
 a global function.  Prefixing g: is required.
-- Compile: let [var, var] = expr
 - Compile: for [key, value] in items(map)
 - Assignment to dict doesn't work:
 let ret: dict<string> = #{}
 ret[i] = string(i)
 - Appending to dict item doesn't work:
 has('asdf'), len('string')
 - Support type for ":let"/":const" at script level for Vim9 script.
 (Ben Jackson, #5671)
 Can we share the code from ex_let_const() between direct execution and
 compiling?
+- Implement "as Name" in "import Item as Name from ..."
 - Disallow unlet for local/script/imported vars
 - Make "++nr" work.
 - Make closures work:
 - Create closure in a loop.  Need to make a list of them.
 - expandcmd() with `=expr` in filename uses legacy expression.
 - has() is compiled as a constant, but some checks are dynamic.
 Check for dynamic values, such as "gui_running".
 New syntax and functionality:
 Improve error checking:
 - "echo Func()" is an error if Func() does not return anything.
+Test:
+- Using a Vim9 autoload script (functions must be global).
 Also:
 - For range: make table of first ASCII character with flag to quickly check if
 it can be a Vim9 command. E.g. "+" can, but "." can't.
 - better implementation for partial and tests for that.
 - Make "g:imported = Export.exported" work in Vim9 script.
 - Make Foo.Bar() work to call the dict function. (#5676)
-- Check that import in legacy script works and puts item in s:
 - Error in any command in "vim9script" aborts sourcing.
 - Find a way to test expressions in legacy and Vim9 script without duplication
 - Fix memory leaks for test_vim9_disassemble, test_vim9_expr, test_vim9_script
 - Test each level of expressions properly, with type checking
 - Test try/catch and throw better, also nested.

 - When 'encoding' is not utf-8, or the job is using another encoding, setup
 conversions.
 Error numbers available:

+E489, E610, E611, E653, E856, E857, E861
+Remove SPACE_IN_FILENAME ? It is only used for completion.
+Can we detect true color support?  https://gist.github.com/XVilka/8346728
+Try setting a color then request the current color, like using t_u7.
+Check out PR #543 (Roland Puntaier).
+Patch for multi-byte characters in langmap and applying a mapping on them.
+(Christian Brabandt, 2015 Jun 12, update July 25)
+Is this the right solution?  Need to cleanup langmap behavior:
+- in vgetorpeek() apply langmap to the typeahead buffer and put the result in
+a copy-buffer, only when langmap is appropriate for the current mode. Then
+check for mapping and let gotchars() work on the copy-buffer.
+- Remove LANGMAP_ADJUST() in other parts of the code.  Make sure the mode is
+covered by the above change.
+So that replaying the register doesn't use keymap/langmap and still does the
+same thing.
+Also see #737: langmap not applied to replaying recording.
 Buffer autocommands are a bit inconsistent.  Add a separate set of
 autocommands for the buffer lifecycle:
