   8 - Sockets not yet working since idle wake-up not implemented.
   9
  10 - wxTextCtrl doesn't work as a stream buffer in Linux/gcc.
  11
  12 - No wxSpinButton.
  13
  14 - No wxToolTip (but see wxToolBar for a way of implementing it).
  15
  16 - Limited clipboard support (text only) and no drag and drop.
  17
  18 - Need a way of specifying default settings for colour/font/etc.
  19
  20 - More optimisation could be done to reduce X server traffic, etc.
  21
  22 - Should scrollbars take on the background colour? Not right for
  23   e.g. wxScrolledWindows, so maybe have wxSystemSettings value for
  24   scrollbar colour, and/or ability to set scrollbar colour independently.
  25
  26 - wxFrame can accept events, but apps cannot draw into it for
  27   Workaround: use an embedded wxWindow.
  28
  29 - The background of a window sometimes isn't restored when changing
  30   notebook pages (see sashtest, mdi examples). The notebook background
  31   colour shows through. A resize, or scroll, restores the correct
  32   background colour.
  33
  34 - In Life! sample, text above slider isn't legible.
  35
  36 - samples/html/helpview and samples/help demonstrate that sometimes,
  37   XPM images can't be loaded, perhaps only in 256-colour mode. This
  38   will now cause an assert rather than an X error. But we need to
  39   either cure the XPM loading problem, or provide alternative toolbar
  40   buttons (for HelpView) and icons (for places where icons are used e.g.
  41   in the log dialog).
  42
  43 - Dialog Editor needs a lot of work.
