-    * Check if an object (a message, detached sign, public key, or whatever)
-      is signed by definite user, i.e. define user
-      (userid, or any other unique identification) on command line.
-      --> NO: Use a script and --status-fd
-
     * Change the internal representation of keyid into a struct which
       can also hold the localid and extend the localid to hold information
       of the subkey number because two subkeys may have the same keyid.
 
-    * signature verification is done duplicated on import: in import.c and
-      then in trustdb.c too.  Maybe we can use a flag to skip the actual
-      verification process (this should work if we use the same keyblock,
-      but I'm not sure how to accomplish that).  Another way is to allow
-      the import of bogus data and let trustdb mark these keys as invalid;
-      I see an advantage in this that it may help to prevent a DoS on a
-      keyserver by sending him a lot of bogus signatures which he has
-      to check - Needs further investigation.

     * Add a way to override the current cipher/md implementations
       by others (using extensions)
 
     * Not GnuPG related:  What about option completion in bash?
       Can "--dump-options" be used for this or should we place the
-      options in a special ELF segment?
+      options in an ELF note section?
 
-    * Split key support (n-out-of-m)
+    * Split key support (n-out-of-m).  Use our own protocol or figure out
+      how PGP does it.
 
     * add an option to re-create a public key from a secret key; we
-      can do this in trustdb.c:verify_own_keys.

     * rewrite --list-packets or put it into another tool.
 
-    * We need a maintenance pass over the trustdb which flags
-      signatures as expired if the key used to make the signature has
-      expired.	Maybe it is a good idea to store the expiration time
-      in the key record of the trustdb.
     * write a tool to extract selected keys from a file.
 
-    * Change the buffering to a mbuf like scheme? Need it for PSST anyway;
-      see Michael's proposal.

     * Keep a list of duplicate, faked or unwanted keyids.
