+- 64-bit atoms in 64-bit mode?
+- rename CONFIG_ALL_UNICODE, CONFIG_BIGNUM, CONFIG_ATOMICS, CONFIG_CHECK_JSVALUE ?
+- unify coding style and naming conventions
+- use names from the ECMA spec in library implementation
+- modules: if no ".", use a well known module loading path ?
+- use JSHoistedDef only for global variables (JSHoistedDef.var_name != JS_ATOM_NULL)
+- add index in JSVarDef and is_arg flag to merge args and vars in JSFunctionDef
+- replace most JSVarDef flags with var_type enumeration
+- use byte code emitters with typed arguments (for clarity)
+- use 2 bytecode DynBufs in JSFunctionDef, one for reading, one for writing
+  and use the same wrappers in all phases
+- use more generic method for line numbers in resolve_variables and resolve_labels
+
+Memory:
+- test border cases for max number of atoms, object properties, string length
+- add emergency malloc mode for out of memory exceptions.
+- test all DynBuf memory errors
+- test all js_realloc memory errors
+- bignum: handle memory errors
+- use memory pools for objects, etc?
+- improve JS_ComputeMemoryUsage() with more info
+
+Optimizations:
+- use auto-init properties for more global objects
+- reuse stack slots for disjoint scopes, if strip
+- optimize `for of` iterator for built-in array objects
+- add heuristic to avoid some cycles in closures
+- small String (0-2 charcodes) with immediate storage
+- perform static string concatenation at compile time
+- optimize string concatenation with ropes or miniropes?
+- add implicit numeric strings for Uint32 numbers?
+- optimize `s += a + b`, `s += a.b` and similar simple expressions
+- ensure string canonical representation and optimise comparisons and hashes?
+- remove JSObject.first_weak_ref, use bit+context based hashed array for weak references
+- optimize function storage with length and name accessors?
+- property access optimization on the global object, functions,
+  prototypes and special non extensible objects.
+- create object literals with the correct length by backpatching length argument
+- remove redundant set_loc_uninitialized/check_uninitialized opcodes
+- peephole optim: push_atom_value, to_propkey -> push_atom_value
+- peephole optim: put_loc x, get_loc_check x -> set_loc x
+- comparative performance benchmark
+- use variable name when throwing uninitialized exception if available
+- convert slow array to fast array when all properties != length are numeric
+- optimize destructuring assignments for global and local variables
+- implement some form of tail-call-optimization
+- debugger keyword support
+- optimize OP_apply
+- optimize f(...b)
+
+Extensions:
+- support more features in [features] section
+- add built-in preprocessor in compiler, get rid of jscompress
+  handle #if, #ifdef, #line, limited support for #define
+- limited support for web assembly 
+- get rid of __loadScript, use more common name
+- BSD sockets
+- Process or thread control
+- use custom printf to avoid C library compatibility issues
+- use custom timezone support to avoid C library compatibility issues
+
+REPL:
+- strip internal functions from stack trace
+- readline: support MS Windows terminal
+- readline: handle dynamic terminal resizing
+- multiline editing
+- debugger
+- runtime object and function inspectors
+- interactive object browser
+- use more generic approach to display evaluation results
+- improve directive handling: dispatch, colorize, completion...
+- save history
+- close all predefined methods in repl.js and jscalc.js
