Problem: There is no easy way to get the global directory, esp. if some
windows have a local directory.
Solution: Make getcwd(-1) return the global directory. (Andy Massimino,
closes#2606)
Problem: If $SHELL contains a space then the default value of 'shell' is
incorrect. (Matthew Horan)
Solution: Escape spaces in $SHELL. (Christian Brabandt, closes#459)
Problem: It is difficult to set the python home directory properly for
Python 2.7 and 3.5 since both use $PYTHONHOME.
Solution: Add the 'pythonhome' and 'pythonthreehome' options. (Kazuki
Sakamoto, closes#1266)
Problem: Slow redrawing with DirectX.
Solution: Avoid calling gui_mch_flush() unnecessarily, especially when
updating the cursor. (Ken Takata, closes#2560)
Problem: Not enough information about what Python version may work.
Solution: Add "python_compiled", "python3_compiled", "python_dynamic" and
"python3_dynamic" values for has().
Problem: getqflist() items are missing if not set, that makes it more
difficult to handle the values.
Solution: When a value is not available return zero or another invalid
value. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closes#2430)
Problem: Not enough quickfix help; confusing winid.
Solution: Add more examples in the help. When the quickfix window is not
present, return zero for getqflist() with 'winid'. Add more tests
for jumping to quickfix list entries. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closes
#2427)
Problem: MS-Windows: does not show colored emojis.
Solution: Implement colored emojis. Improve drawing speed. Make 'taamode'
work. (Taro Muraoka, Yasuhiro Matsumoto, Ken Takata, close#2375)
Problem: Cannot use imactivatefunc() unless compiled with +xim.
Solution: Allow using imactivatefunc() when not compiled with +xim.

Problem: Terminal balloon only shows one line.
Solution: Split into several lines in a clever way. Add balloon_split().
Make balloon_show() accept a list in the terminal.
Problem: Cannot use 'balloonexpr' in a terminal.

terminal. Initial implementation for Unix with GUI.
Problem: Initializing menus can be slow, especially when there are many
keymaps, color schemes, etc.
Solution: Do the globbing for runtime files lazlily. (Ken Takata)
Problem: GUI window always resizes when adding/removing a scrollbar,
toolbar, etc.
Solution: Add the 'k' flag in 'guioptions' to keep the GUI window size and
change the number of lines/columns instead. (Ychin, closes#703)
Problem: 'hlsearch' highlighting not removed after incsearch (lacygoill)
Solution: Redraw all windows. Start search at the end of the match. Improve
how CTRL-G works with incremental search. Add tests. (Christian
Brabandt, Hirohito Higashi, haya14busa, closes#2267)
Problem: Cannot use a lambda for the skip argument to searchpair().
Solution: Evaluate a partial, funcref and lambda. (LemonBoy, closes#1454,
closes#2265)
Problem: Incremental search only shows one match.
Solution: When 'incsearch' and and 'hlsearch' are both set highlight all
matches. (haya14busa, closes#2198)
Problem: Mac features are confusing.
Solution: Make feature names more consistent, add "osxdarwin". Rename
feature flags, cleanup Mac code. (Kazunobu Kuriyama, closes#2178)
