! on widgets with visible counts > 1.
  
! Focus issues with buttons and dropdowns
  
! Win32 Platform Issues
!   Shift-Tab may not work properly

! clicking in other block doesn't adjust focus properly

!   will most likely not work as it's based upon location in widget
! 
! dropdowns may be wierd
!   if empty and i click in and start typing
!   it lets me enter bad data instead of autofinding the first field
!   wxpython dropdowns don't allow you to go to next|prev record via up and 
down arrows

-    Bugs 
-     I've broken msgboxs in triggers
-     
-     triggers should not fire during query entry
  
!     on some installations gnuef segfaults when the splashscreen timeout 
expires 
! 
!   Internal Enhancements
      clean up code  [everyone working on the code]
-       provide better seperation of Objects in the Data system
        restore proper encapsulation in system
  
!     Rewrite the event system to allow greater efficency and flexibility
! 
!   Data source related
!     Make modification of data lock the record in the backend (if supported)
! 
!   UI Enhancements
!   
!     user extensible menus
! 
!     menus should disable options not available via events 
! 
!     Go thru UIwxpython and UIcurses and pull out everything possible
!       that can be put in UIbase.  Maybe adjust UIpython to use NC*style
!       ojbects so that most of the core functionality can be moved to UIbase
! 
  
!     Dropdown Issues:
!       wxpython dropdowns don't allow you to go to next|prev record via up and 
down arrows
!       mouse events not getting thru properly
!       mouse click to focus not getting thru properly
!       autocompletion is screwed up - currently only works on first character 
typed
!         this is due to wxpython's setValue on dropdowns setting the displayed 
value
!         but the internal value isn't changing
  
!     maybe load labels dynamically from external files [reinhard]
! 
!   Entry enhancements 
  
!     Add support of mouse focus to the character
  
      taborder support
  
!     Add support for more win/gtk like focus system
!       pgup/pgdown effect page not block
! 
!     Add layout manager support [*maybe* reinhard ;) ]
  
      Pop up search boxes (lookup dialogs)
  
!   Long term:
  
!     rewrite the whole friggen braindead focus system
! 
!     Add ENTITY support of localization
!  
  
! Features
!   Input masks 
!   Mirrored Fields 
! 
!   on multi-visible blocks make flag to cause next-field on last field in 
record to 
!   go to first field of next record
! 
!   maybe autotab
! 
!   enhanced trigger system
!      common functions  pulling date from database
!      Letting trigger code change the status text
! 
!   For 2-tier we need some way to be able to issue direct sql commands
! 
!   Implement new entry tags: 
!     required: Is this field required?
!     no_ltrim: Do not left trim this field
!     no_rtrim: Do not right trim this field
!     ignoreCaseOnQuery: When querying, ignore case on this field
!     editOnNull: Only allow editing when field is empty
!     
! 
! 
! Misc thoughts
!   dynamic widgets - 'updateWidgetProperties' message
!   customizable menu system 
!   internationalization support
!   customizable toolbars
!   multi-page objects - I tell a object it's at x,y on pages 1,2,3
!    a much simpler wrapper driver per UI, w/ as much as possible moved to 
UIbase (already partially done)
!    support for newer widgets (embedded notebook tab support instead of the 
whole form thing we have now, image widget)
!   layout managment
