+* move PAM code into its own binary

 
 

-* unset cgroup agents on shutdown
+* logind: ensure ACLs are updated on login and logout

 
 

-* Add ConditionPathExists= checks to binfmt automount units, to avoid
-  installing the automount point if the directory does not exist.
+* warn if the user stops a service but not its associated socket

 
 

-* drop /.readahead on bigger upgrades with yum
+* ensure we always set the facility when logging to kmsg

 
 

-* add inode stat() check to readahead to suppress preloading changed files
+* service: pid file reading after reload doesn't work, since we don't reset the pid variable

 
 

-* POSIX mqueue support in .socket units
+* logind: spawn user@..service on login

 
 

-* allow list of pathes in config_parse_condition_path()
+* logind: non-local X11 server handling

 
 

-* introduce dbus calls for enabling/disabling a service
+* logind: use sysfs path in device hash table instead of sysname, as soon as fb driver is fixed

 
 

-* support notifications for services being enabled/disabled
+* implement Register= switch in .socket units to enable registration
+  in Avahi, RPC and other socket registration services.

 
 

-* Maybe merge nss-myhostname into systemd?

-* support wildcard expansion in ListenStream= and friends
+* readahead: check whether a btrfs volume includes ssd by checking mount flag "ssd"

 
 

-* support wildcard expansion in EnvironmentFile= and friends
+* support sd_notify() style notification when reload is finished (RELOADED=1)
+
+* support sf_notify() style notification when shutting down, to make auto-exit bus services work

+* verify that the AF_UNIX sockets of a service in the fs still exist
+  when we start a service in order to avoid confusion when a user
+  assumes starting a service is enough to make it accessible
+
+* Make it possible to set the keymap independently from the font on
