 Wishlist Stuff:
 ===============
 
-* The goal should be to provide fullscreen support for most common
-  monitors -> levels should have a minimum size of 1920x1200
-
-* FPS: issues, SDL_Delay() calls should be limited to ScreenManager: 
-
-  - Editor:     27fps - 20%
-  - Main Menu:  30fps - 50%
-  - Worldmap:   50fps - 22%
-  - Starscreen: 19fps - 14%
-  - Game:       32fps - 14%
-  - EndScreen:  50fps - 19%
-
 * integrate install command into scons (maybe), use 'install' instead of 'cp'
 
-* remove --verbose or make it an alias for --debug all
-
-* add dynamic resize for the game, problematic due to scaled
-  backgrounds, might be easier to do if backgrounds would be handled
-  more flexible (seperate background gradient from cloud objects and
-  stuff like that)
-
 * Liquids/water is 32, others are 64, this is causing trouble with the
   collision map
