+====== Planned features/fixes ======
+Quick list in mostly no particular order :
+  * **cleaner and modular internal handling of the playlist**
+    * will allow pluggable play-mode like an album-mode that play whole albums
+  * **change internal handling of tags (separation between the storage and the usage, using keywords for the usage)** (//done in v1.1.x//)
+    * will allow changing/translating the <Unknown> for unknown artist/album
+    * will allow better support for multiple album with a common name
+    * easier to add tags (//in progress//)
+  * artist/album pictures
+    * more cover/artist picture options : to set default load/save folder/filename
+    * more than one picture
+    * cover manager
+  * lyrics
+    * more sources for lyrics :
+      * using the ruby amarok script  http://lyriki.com/Help:Wiki-Lyrics_Script ?
+      * http://lyrics.mirkforce.net/cgi-bin/stats.cgi?period=1 ?
+      * support for reading/saving the lyrics in the lyrics tag
+  * SongTree
+    * implement playlist/list/queue mode (//done in v1.1.x//)
+    * implement type-ahead search (//done in v1.1.x//)
+    * implement column drag-and-drop
+    * better grouping modes (//partly done in v1.1.x//)
+    * add a way to define actions to execute based on where the SongTree is clicked on
+    * some optimizations
+  * custom filename pattern in autofill mass tagging (//done in git//)
+  * better genre edit widget in masstagging (that allow removing a genre from all songs without touching the other genres) (//done in v1.1.x//)
+  * options to save lastplayed, playcount, rating, labels, lastskipped and skipcount in tags
+  * FPane tree like for example genre -> artist -> album (-> songs)? (//done in v1.1.x with some minor bugs, no ->songs for now//)
+  * ipod (probably after creating perl bindings for libgpod)
+  * web radio
+  * lastfm neighborhood "radios" (//less likely now that last.fm streaming is only available in a few countries//)
+  * support for m4a and wma (//support for m4a in git (not well tested yet, please use backups)//)
+  * support for cuesheets
+  * fix expandbox inside a paned
+  * asynchronous DNS request in simple_http.pm (//done in git, use either wget or AnyEvent::HTTP//)
+  * more widgets
+    * next song (//possible v1.1.2+, by using the group option : Title(group=Next) (see [[http://gmusicbrowser.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=gmusicbrowser/gmusicbrowser;a=commit;h=43416e458712d1104ffc7b3149499172468f42c9|this commit]])//)
+    * list of songs from album (//in progress//)
+  * change contexts and ExtraWidgets system (//done in v1.1.2+//)
+  * gui layout edition
+  * composite layout widgets. example : defining a widget composed of the Prev Stop Play Next buttons, that can be re-used in multiple layouts, so removing the Stop button from this composite-widget would affect all the layouts using it. (//possible in v1.1.2+//)
+  * change the "timeslider" so that the handle is smaller, and replace "click-to-scroll" by "click-to-jump" (//done in v1.1.x//)
+  * a way to set an arbitrary position for the "traytip" on song change, and make it possible without a trayicon
+  * way to configure context menu's web link (AMG/google...)  (in a plugin ?)
+  * configure the context-menus ?
+  * add option to show empty or custom picture instead of nothing when no artist/album picture (//almost done in v1.1.x : lacks GUI//)
+  * playlist history (to correct mistakes,...)
+  * use SongTree drawing code ("graphical elements") in Mosaic mode, in a layout widget ?
+  * replace all the %letter syntax by the much more powerful, not finished, new syntax (//in progress, can already use $field in v1.1.x//)
+  * add replay-gain song properties (//done in v1.1.2+//)
+  * equalizer :
+    * support the equalizer option in mplayer (although it can't be change during the song)
+    * allow loading/saving preset (the band frequencies in the gstreamer plugin and the mplayer option are different -> I'm not sure what I should do)
+      * <ochosi>: mplayer and gstreamer use two different models (preferred and calculated center), the difference between the two could be considered as redundant. ([[http://www.zytrax.com/tech/audio/equalization.html|source]])
+  * better "album menu" to select songs from album with album picture
+  * way to select songs of a SongList/SongTree based on a filter
+  * option to separate artist/album with less than n songs in the artist/album menu (already done but no GUI to activate it)
+  * make using mpg123 instead of mpg321 possible. (//done in v1.1.x//)
+  * redesign copy/move/mass rename actions
+  * webcontext : open link in other tab / right-click menu
+  * alternate size calculations modes for cloud view (based on number of songs played ...) (//some modes are possible in v1.1.2+//)
+  * button to select a colored square/shape as a label icon
