* Mac and DOS support is broken, doesn't even
compile. Multiple display support will probably not provide
new Emacs features on these systems, but the multi-tty
branch changed a few low-level interfaces, and the
system-dependent source files need to be adapted
accordingly. The changes are mostly trivial, so almost
anyone can help, if only by compiling the branch and
reporting the compiler errors.

** Dan Nicolaescu suggests that -nw should be added as an alias for -t
in emacsclient. Good idea. (Alas, implementing this is not
trivial, getopt_long does not seem to support two-letter ``short''
options. Patches are welcome.)
** Mark Plaksin suggests that emacsclient should accept the same
X-related command-line arguments as Emacs. Most of the X-related
argument-handling is done in Lisp, so this should be quite easy to
implement. (For example, Samium Gromoff wants emacsclient to
support --geometry; implementing this would add that support.)

-- Miles Bader suggests that C-x C-c on an emacsclient frame should

(Done. This is the new default. No complaints so far.)
-- Clean up the frame-local variable system. I think it's ugly and
error-prone. But maybe I just haven't yet fully understood it.
