Other issues that need to be resolved have a "Priority" tag and are not in the list above. There may be some follow up comments in this issue or in release-specific issues prioritizing the smaller issues.

Feedback and questions on priority in these issues, adding issues, or removing issues are welcome.

NOTE: The first three items are bugs and have high priority. Further, the way I see it, the order of issues #765 and #795 will make the development process go smoother.
