Problem: Can execute shell commands in rvim through interfaces.
Solution: Disable using interfaces in restricted mode. Allow for writing
file with writefile(), histadd() and a few others.
Problem: MS-Windows: inconsistent selection of winpty/conpty.
Solution: Name option 'termwintype', use ++type argument and "term_pty" for
term_start(). (Hirohito Higashi, closes#3915)
Problem: Cannot have a local value for 'scrolloff' and 'sidescrolloff'.
(Gary Holloway)
Solution: Make 'scrolloff' and 'sidescrolloff' global-local. (mostly by
Aron Widforss, closes#3539)
Problem: Showing two characters for tab is limited.
Solution: Allow for a third character for "tab:" in 'listchars'. (Nathaniel
Braun, Ken Takata, closes#3810)
Problem: Get warning message when 'completefunc' returns nothing.
Solution: Allow for returning v:none to suppress the warning message.
(Yasuhiro Matsumoto, closes#3789)
Problem: Tabline is not always redrawn when something that is used in
'tabline' changes.
Solution: Add ":redrawtabline" so that a plugin can at least cause the
redraw when needed.
Problem: ":sign place" only uses the current buffer.
Solution: List signs for all buffers when there is no buffer argument.
Fix error message for invalid buffer name in sign_place().
(Yegappan Lakshmanan, closes#3774)
Problem: ":sign place" requires the buffer argument.
Solution: Make the argument optional. Also update the help and clean up the
sign test. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closes#3767)
Problem: Deleting signs and completion for :sign is insufficient.
Solution: Add deleting signs in a specified or any group from the current
cursor location. Add group and priority to sign command
completion. Add tests for different sign unplace commands. Update
help text. Add tests for sign jump with group. Update help for
sign jump. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closes#3731)
Problem: Custom operators can't act upon a forced motion. (Christian
Wellenbrock)
Solution: Add the forced motion to the mode() result. (Christian Brabandt,
closes#3490)
Problem: :echomsg and :echoerr do not handle List and Dict like :echo does.
(Daniel Hahler)
Solution: Be more tolerant about the expression result type.
Problem: Placing signs can be complicated.
Solution: Add functions for defining and placing signs. Introduce a group
name to avoid different plugins using the same signs. (Yegappan
Lakshmanan, closes#3652)
Problem: :digraph output is not easy to read.
Solution: Add highlighting for :digraphs. (Marcin Szamotulski, closes#3572)
Also add section headers for :digraphs!.
Problem: It is not easy to edit a script that was sourced.
Solution: Add a count to ":scriptnames", so that ":script 40" edits the
script with script ID 40.
Problem: shiftwidth() does not take 'vartabstop' into account.
Solution: Use the cursor position or a position explicitly passed.
Also make >> and << work better with 'vartabstop'. (Christian
Brabandt)
Problem: Cannot build without the sandbox.
Solution: Set the secure option instead of using the sandbox. Also restrict
the characters from 'spelllang' that are used for LANG.vim.
