Yep.  I think Tom and I have a clear picture, but we aren't make it
visible enough, I guess.  One idea I had was to either create a web page
or add to the top of the TODO items that are currently being worked on.

I do think we need a structure for this to be valuable.  We can perhaps
use a wiki to track open development items, with some status, like I did
for the open items list for 8.2.  I usually only do that during feature
freeze, but could expand it and open it up for others to edit.
