;; * Command to (re)build the tag files in all project roots. To that
-;; end, we might need to add a way to limit etags to certain files
-;; (e.g. have a whitelist, in addition to the blacklist provided by
-;; ignores), and/or allow specifying additional tag regexps.

+;; wildcards for each root to limit etags to certain files (in

+;; specifying additional tag regexps.
;;
;; * UI for the user to be able to pick the current project for the
;; whole Emacs session, independent of the current directory. Or,
;; to search for a regexp across all open projects. Provide a
;; history of projects that were opened in the past (storing it as a
;; list of directories should suffice).
+;;
+;; * Support for project-local variables: a UI to edit them, and a
+;; utility function to retrieve a value. Probably useless without
+;; support in various built-in commands. In the API, we might get
+;; away with only adding a `project-configuration-directory' method,
+;; defaulting to the project root the current file/buffer is in.
+;; And prompting otherwise. How to best mix that with backends that
+;; want to set/provide certain variables themselves, is up for
+;; discussion.
