Given that the TODO list is the official compilation of things that  
need to get done, ISTM that anything warranting a TODO or XXX in the  
code should probably be on the TODO list. Leaving the TODO or XXX in  
the code is fine, since someone might be inspired to fix it while  
noodling around, but something not on the TODO is much less likely to  
get fixed.
