- libvirt and by connecting to an existing appliance. This was
- originally planned for 1.8 but we didn't get patches in time.
-
-* Deeper and wider support for progress messages. Many long-running
- operations in guestfs-browser don't display progress messages, eg.
- "du", "tar-in/out", because it's hard to estimate the runtime of
- these commands. We should modify the protocol so that the library
- can hint at when progress messages would be useful (there's no point
- going to extra lengths to generate them if on the library side no
- one is registered to listen to them), and modify the daemon to try
- harder to generate them, even if they are only estimates. Also
- GtkProgressBar supports a "pulse mode" where it indicates activity
- with no time estimate, and we should try to support that as well.
-
-* Better handling of partitions, including MBR extended partitions
- (RHBZ#593511, RHBZ#602997, RHBZ#642821).
