 - DOC: finish DAD doc (doc/developer/dad/: e.g. run.html is missing) [report: Alain]
 - FEATURE: no-export attribute: cache a no-export attribute in a bitfield (e.g. flags like no-export for vector outputs, pixel outputs); exporter should set the bits in HID; core rendring should decide what to draw; use case: poly clearance to emulate keep-away on outline, and replace the old zero-width line trick [report: karl]
 - FEATURE: configure setting: library window filter shouldn't really filter if there's () in the string [report: pskibinski]

 	+ FEATURE: Add a button to clear the done status from a component. [report: Ade]
 	+ FEATURE: Show the status message on a group when minimized to indicate whether the groups components are done, not done or partially done. [report: Ade]
-	- FEATURE: If a component is out of view when selected then pan the view until it is visible. May need to zoom also if a group is selected. [report: Ade]

 	- FEATURE: make the drill exporter sort drills by attributes, an user configured table telling which drill (by attribute) ends up in which file (for support for plugged vias/filled vias) [report: Vuokko]
 	- FEATURE: invent a generic API for both the drill attrib config table
