+(11) Runtime endiannness expressions.  The suggested syntax is:
+
+    { field : len : endianness(expr) }
+
+    where expr would evaluate to something like `BigEndian or
+    `LittleEndian.
+
+    There are several protocols around where endianness is only
+    determined at runtime, examples are libpcap and TIFF.
+
+(12) More constant field lengths.
+
+(13) Implement native endian functions.
+
+(14) A proper test suite.

+(15) More examples:
