 Features:
 

-* MessageQueueMessageSize= and RLimitFSIZE= (and suchlike) should use parse_iec_size().
+* gpt-auto-generator:
+  - Define new partition type for encrypted swap
+  - Make /home automount rather than mount?
+  - don't use blkid on every single partition, but on the main disk only
+
+* 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

 
 

-* man: move .link, .network and .netdev documentation into their own
-  man pages maybe called "systemd.link(5)", "systemd.network(5)" and
-  "systemd.netdev(5)" or so.
+* add an "input" group to udev logic and add all input devices to it

 
 

-* extend device cgroup controller support to allow enabling groups of
-  device nodes, so that pts can be allowed in whole. For that,
-  introduce the syntax "block-XYZ" and "char-XYZ" in addition to the
-  existing "/dev/foobar", where XYZ then is looked up in /proc/devices
-  and mapped to one or more majors.
+* libsystemd-login: implement getpeer_unit(), get_peer_slice(), ...

 
 

-* Add all pts device nodes to those allowed by default when the device
-  controller is used.
+* machined: provide calls GetMachineByAddress() on the manager
+  interface to get the machine for a local IP address, and
+  GetAddress() on the Machine interface to get the Address for a
+  machine. Implement via forking off child process which quickly joins
+  the cotnainer and passes data to parent. Show this in "machinectl
+  status", and use it to implement NSS module to provide automatic
+  name resolution for containers.
+
+* add generator that pulls in systemd-network from containers when
+  CAP_NET_ADMIN is set, more than the loopback device is defined, even
+  when it is otherwise off
+
+* MessageQueueMessageSize= and RLimitFSIZE= (and suchlike) should use parse_iec_size().
