* general items:
	- Investigate better (that is, normal) text selection.
	- Use PDF font descriptors to create an FcPattern.
	- Add simle performance benchmark that takes a pdf and renders
	  every page 100 times or so.  Start keeping track of
	  performance.
	- make color space conversion stuff more sane (right now we
	  hack around some of it in the cairo backend)
	- move away from getChar to a more read(2) like interface

* core:
	- use libtiff for ccitt decoding?

* Qt4 frontend:
	- expose Rendition media through the MovieObject API
	- use Q_GLOBAL_STATIC for GlobalParams?
	- use QSettings or another system for loading/saving Document/global settings?
	- expose API for lcms/color management system
	- make the ArthurOutputDev optional

* glib frontend:
        - Sound/Movie actions support
	- API to create annotations

* new frontends:
	- Java/JNI-based frontend for Android

* cairo backend:
  	- Implement linear/radial gradients with cairo gradients
	- PDF Blend Modes
	- Make the cairo backend feature complete and optimize the
	  heck out of it.

Jeff Muizelaar's TODO:
	Short Term:
	- factor out some of the color conversion code from CairoOutputDev and ArthurOutputDev.
	- fix patterned text fills.
	Long Term:
	- use cairo glyph cache for type3 fonts.
	- try to use cairo pattern support.
