Those sound like good ideas to me!  One thing we need to start getting
in order is the API documentation.  I had started going through all the
public functions and adding Doxygen documentation to them, but never
finished that.  As we add new features, we need to mark the version when
they were added, so users of the API can know what their software will
require.

This shouldn't stop us from coding new stuff of course, but it is
sometimes a lot easier to add documentation as code is added, rather
than doing it later.

I was going to add a ticket for documentation, but see that you beat me
to it!
