* Open Bugs
+** OPEN Sanitize certificate names
+ :LOGBOOK:
+ - State "OPEN" from [2020-06-22 Mon 10:32]
+ :END:
+
+Currently things will break in undefined ways if a name is specified
+that contains path separators and probably other characters that I
+haven't thought of. This is dangerously unacceptable and needs to be
+fixed right away.
+
+** OPEN Set timer after creating network process
+
+While the current order is necessary for synchronous socks
+connections, it is unecessary for regular connections which have the
+no-wait flag set. Furthermore, for these connections, having the
+timer fire up early means that it interferes with requests for
+user interaction that may appear during the initial connection setup.
+E.g., asking for approval of uknown TLS certificates.

* Closed Bugs
** CLOSED Org mode faces are not present in recent emacs versions
** OPEN Replace support for user-specified starting pages
This used to be available, but was removed during a refactor.
-
-** OPEN Allow for grouping of bookmarks
-To support this I'd like to add a bookmark page specific
-set of keybindings. Currently all bindings available on
-the bookmark page are available everywhere else. But
-expanding and collapsing bookmark groups sounds like it
-might need more specific bindings.
-
-*** Priority bump <2020-05-31 Sun>
-
-As bookmark lists grow, some sort of grouping is becoming more and more
-important. Furthermore, with this in place it would become feasible
-(and I really suspect almost trivial) to implement an update-checking
-system for chosen groups of bookmarks.
-
-For instance, we could prefetch content for each of the addresses within
-a chosen group, indicating which had been changed since the last fetch.
-(We could just store hashes of earlier content to detect changes.)
-
-The difficult thing to decide is how the UI for the new bookmark page
-will work. It already has its own renderer, and we could easily stop
-using the gopher directory line renderer in favour of something more
-amenable to displaying the group information. Thus we're very free to
-do whatever we like once we also have a special key map in place as well.
-
-I guess I need to look into what native widgets Emacs has for displaying
-collapsable hierarchies.
-
-** OPEN Implement Gemini support [88%]
-Here is the checklist of features required before release:
-- [X] basic genimi transactions
-- [ ] gemini transactions requiring client certificates
-- [X] gemini input handling
-- [X] gemini map files (text/gemini)
-- [X] Support for plain text responses (text/*)
-- [X] Support for image responses (text/image)
-- [X] Support for mime-specified character encodeing
-- [X] Saving responses to disk
-- [X] Viewing raw responses
-
-The last few will be made infinitely easier if we factor the
-gopher "getter" code differently.
+** OPEN Make installing existing certificates easier
+ :LOGBOOK:
+ - State "OPEN" from "CLOSED" [2020-06-22 Mon 10:34]
+ :END:
-** OPEN Add history browsing
+It's naive to think that people don't have client certificates created
+outside of elpher. Thus we need some easy way to "install" these
+certificates, either by copying them or by referencing them in some
+way.
* Closed Enhancements
cursor.
A small amount of feedback could help with this.

+Currently pages with many links render extremely slowly.
+
+Example (>2000 links, 15s): gemini://rawtext.club/~sloum/geminilist/
+
+It turns out that by far the main contributor to this is the use of
+(url-port) in elpher-address-from-gemini-url. I encountered this
+problem once before in elpher-remove-redundant-ports. This function
+call is just incredibly slow for some bizarre reason. Happily,
+(url-portspec) is functionally equivalent and is orders of magnitude
+faster. With this replacement, loading the above page takes ~2s
+and there aren't any other hotspots.
