(x_append_glyph): Setup members of struct glyph properly for composition. (x_append_composite_glyph): New function. (VCENTER_BASELINE_OFFSET): New macro. (x_produce_glyphs): If it->what == IT_COMPOSITION, setup members of struct it for the composition. Cache pixel offsets in the struct composition. Delete codes for a composite character. Handle Vignore_relative_composition in composition code. (struct glyph_string): Delete member cmpcharp, add new member cmp. (x_set_cursor_gc): Check s->cmp, not s->cmpcharp. (x_compute_glyph_string_overhangs): Likewise. (x_get_glyph_overhangs): Delete codes for a composite character. (x_right_overwritten): Check s->cmp, not s->cmpcharp. (x_draw_glyph_string_background): Likewise. Delete codes for checking s->gidx for a composition. (x_draw_glyph_string_foreground): Delete code for a composite character. (x_draw_composite_glyph_string_foreground): New function. (x_draw_glyph_string_box): Check s->cmp, not s->cmpcharp. (x_draw_glyph_string): Handle the case of COMPOSITE_GLYPH. (struct work): Deleted. (x_fill_composite_glyph_string): Argument changed. Mostly rewritten for that. (x_fill_glyph_string): Don't check CHARSET_COMPOSITION. (BUILD_CHAR_GLYPH_STRINGS): Don't handle composition here. (BUILD_COMPOSITE_GLYPH_STRING): New macro. (BUILD_GLYPH_STRINGS): For composition, call BUILD_COMPOSITE_GLYPH_STRING. (x_new_font): Initialize f->output_data.x->baseline_offset, not f->output_data.x->font_baseline.

* Implement a clean way to use different major modes for
  different parts of a buffer.

* Give start-process the ability to direct standard-error
  output to a different filter.

* Make compile.el record the markers that point to error loci
  on text properties in the error message lines.

* Make desktop.el save the "frame configuration" of Emacs (in some
  useful sense).

* Make movemail work with IMAP.

* Add ANSI C prototype forward declarations to the source files,
  so that even the functions used within one file have prototypes.

* Replace finder.el with something that generates an Info file
  which gives the same information through a menu structure.

* Implement a variant of uncompress.el or jka-compr.el that
  works with GNU Privacy Guard for encryption.

* Save undo information in files, and reload it when needed
  for undoing.

* modify comint.el so that input appears in a special font.
  I can add a simple Emacs feature to help.

* Implement other text formatting properties.
** Footnotes that can appear either in place
  or at the end of the page.
** text property that says "don't break line in middle of this".
  Don't break the line between two characters that have the
  same value of this property.
** Discretionary hyphens that disappear at end of line.

* Implement use of mmap to allocate buffers, when mmap exists.

* Change the Windows NT menu code
  so that it handles the deep_p argument and avoids
  regenerating the whole menu bar menu tree except
  when the user tries to use the menubar.

  This requires the RIT to forward the WM_INITMENU message to
  the main thread, and not return from that message until the main
  thread has processed the menu_bar_activate_event and regenerated
  the whole menu bar.  In the mean time, it should process other messages.
