+* Python
+** Fix builtin/keyword fontification for Python 3
+E.g. =print= became a builtin.
+*** TODO add fontification tests
+*** TODO have dedicated font-lock styles for Python 2, 3 and "mixed"
+Default to "mixed" (rely on tests to ensure user-visible change).
+**** TODO create font-lock styles
+**** TODO create variable to choose style
+Users could customize it or set it wiht directory-local variables.
+*** TODO add heuristic to pick the "right" style
+** Fontify f-strings
+E.g. =f'an {expression} that should be highlighted'=.
+
+
+* Shell scripts
+** Fix builtin/keyword fontification
+- =continue= and =break= are /builtins/.
+** Fontify variables within strings
+E.g. ="an ${expression} that should be highlighted"=.
+** Do not highlight single-quoted command substitutions
+E.g. ='this $(call) should not be highlighted'=.
+
+
+* Makefile
+** Recognize [[http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=330][POSIX "immediate-expansion"]] operator ~::=~
+
+
+* Assembly
+** =C-o= inserts a tab despite =indent-tabs-mode= being nil
+This seems to come from the mode setting =fill-prefix=.  The mode also
+does not adhere to the "~RET~ = smart newline, ~C-j~ = dumb linefeed"
+convention for no good reason AFAICT.
