-- Work out why XFreeFont in font.cpp produces a segv. This is
-  currently commented out, which presumably causes a memory leak.

-- Also work out why wxWindow::SetFont causes the widget to be shrunk
-  to fit its text, in dialogs. Uncomment the SetFont implementation and pop
-  up a dialog, e.g. an About box. Widgets are arranged
-  incorrectly. Seems to be OK for non-dialog panels, once the
-  size has been restored after the font setting.
-  In fact it seems OK for dialogs now!!! Weird.
+- Have a central/per app file for colour settings, with a wxWin
+  app to allow changing settings interactively.

 
 

-- ChangeFont should have an extra arg, to allow for not resizing
-  the window back to the original size after setting the font.
-  Also don't call SetFont from constructor, assign the font and
-  call ChangeFont so we can pass FALSE if the size has been passed
-  as the default (which means: wxWin should choose an appropriate
-  size, so Motif should expand/contract the widget as appropriate).
+- Colour setting in widgets (almost done). Should scrollbars take
+  on the background colour? Not right for e.g. wxScrolledWindows,
+  so maybe have wxSystemSettings value for scrollbar colour, and/or
+  ability to set scrollbar colour independently.

 
 

-- Colour setting in widgets (almost done).
+- Optimize wxWindow OnPaint to avoid flicker, collapsing Expose events
+  as per flicker fix in 1.68. It will be tricky to avoid
+  interfering with non-wxScrolledWindow widgets except by
+  explicitly testing for wxScrolledWindow.

 
 - Implementation of OnEraseBackground. How? Call OnEraseBackground
   just before OnPaint? Will duplicate Xlib's own erase of the background.
