TODO List 1.2 release - Make URI validation routines tighter (especially mailto) - More extensive URI filtering schemes - Allow for background-image and list-style-image (see above) - Distinguish between different types of URIs, for instance, a mailto URI in IMG SRC is nonsensical - Error logging for filtering/cleanup procedures 1.3 release - Add various "levels" of cleaning - Related: Allow strict (X)HTML - More fine-grained control over escaping behavior - Silently drop content inbetween SCRIPT tags (can be generalized to allow specification of elements that, when detected as foreign, trigger removal of children, although unbalanced tags could wreck havoc (or at least delete the rest of the document)). 1.4 release - Additional support for poorly written HTML - Implement all non-essential attribute transforms - Microsoft Word HTML cleaning (i.e. MsoNormal) 2.0 release - Formatters for plaintext - Auto-paragraphing (be sure to leverage fact that we know when things shouldn't be paragraphed, such as lists and tables). - Linkify URLs - Smileys 3.0 release - Extended HTML capabilities based on namespacing and tag transforms - Hooks for adding custom processors to custom namespaced tags and attributes, offer default implementation - Lots of documentation and samples Ongoing - Lots of profiling, make it faster! - Plugins for major CMSes (very tricky issue) Unknown release (on a scratch-an-itch basis) - Fixes for Firefox's inability to handle COL alignment props (Bug 915) - Automatically add non-breaking spaces to empty table cells when empty-cells:show is applied to have compatibility with Internet Explorer - Convert RTL/LTR override characters to tags, or vice versa on demand. Also, enable disabling of directionality Encoding workarounds - Non-lossy dumb alternate character encoding transformations, achieved by numerically encoding all non-ASCII characters - Semi-lossy dumb alternate character encoding transformations, achieved by encoding all characters that have string entity equivalents Requested - Native content compression, whitespace stripping (don't rely on Tidy, make sure we don't remove from
 or related tags)
 - Win32 Phalanger C# binaries (?)
 - Remove redundant tags, ex. Underlined. Implementation notes:
    1. Analyzing which tags to remove duplicants
    2. Ensure attributes are merged into the parent tag
    3. Extend the tag exclusion system to specify whether or not the
    contents should be dropped or not (currently, there's code that could do
    something like this if it didn't drop the inner text too.)

Wontfix
 - Non-lossy smart alternate character encoding transformations (unless
   patch provided)
 - Pretty-printing HTML, users can use Tidy on the output on entire page
