+=item guestfish megabyte modifiers don't work right on all commands
+
+In recent guestfish you can use C<1M> to mean 1 megabyte (and
+similarly for other modifiers). What guestfish actually does is to
+multiply the number part by the modifier part and pass the result to
+the C API. However this doesn't work for a few APIs which aren't
+expecting bytes, but are already expecting some other unit
+(eg. megabytes).
+
+The most common is L</guestfs_lvcreate>. The guestfish command:
+
+ lvcreate LV VG 100M
+
+does not do what you might expect. Instead because
+L</guestfs_lvcreate> is already expecting megabytes, this tries to
+create a 100 I<terabyte> (100 megabytes * megabytes) logical volume.
+The error message you get from this is also a little obscure.
+
+This could be fixed in the generator by specially marking parameters
+and return values which take bytes or other units.
+
+=item Protocol limit of 256 characters for error messages
+
+This limit is both rather small and quite unnecessary. We should be
+able to return error messages up to the length of the protocol message
+(2-4 MB).
+
+Note that we cannot change the protocol without some breakage, because
+there are distributions that repackage the Fedora appliance.
+
+=item Protocol should return errno with error messages.
+
+It would be a nice-to-have to be able to get the original value of
+'errno' from inside the appliance along error paths (where set).
+Currently L<guestmount(1)> goes through hoops to try to reverse the
+error message string into an errno, see the function error() in
+fuse/guestmount.c.
