-* logind: avoid processing the lid switch for 3min (or so) after
-  startup and 1min (or so) after coming back from suspend, in order to
-  give USB docking stations time to pop up a video device, which could
-  act as lid-switch blocker.
+* consider adding RuntimeDirectoryUser= + RuntimeDirectoryGroup=
+
+* sd-event: define more intervals where we will shift wakeup intervals around in, 1h, 6h, 24h, ...
+
+* maybe add DefaultTimerAccuracySec= as global config option to set AccuracySec='s default value in .timer units
+
+* mount /sys/fs/cgroup read-only (but leave the subdirs writable)
+
+* gpt-auto-generator:
+  - Support LUKS for root devices
+  - Define new partition type for encrypted swap? Support probed LUKS for encrypted swap?
+  - Make /home automount rather than mount?
+
+* improve journalctl performance by loading journal files
+  lazily. Encode just enough information in the file name, so that we
+  don't have to open it to know that it is not interesting for us, for
+  the most common operations.
+
+* support transient mount units
+
+* Imply DevicePolicy=closed when PrivateDevices= is used
+
+* add an "input" group to udev logic and add all input devices to it
+
+* libsystemd-login: implement getpeer_unit(), get_peer_slice(), ...
