 ;; some Emacs bug at the time.  ISTR maniac has problems with
 ;; whitespace at the end of paragraphs.]
 
+;;; Todo/Bugs:
+
+;; - When deleting the first word on a line, the space after that word tends
+;;   to become part of the fill-prefix, causing either wrong filling of the
+;;   remaining text, or causing the cursor to move unexpectedly.  Ex:
+;;   Start with
+;;                I>< blabla
+;;
+;;   and hit backspace.  We end up with
+;;
+;;                 ><blabla
+;;   instead of
+;;                >< blabla
+;;
+;;   Other example.  Start with
+;;
+;;     Foo bar blablabla asdgf
+;;     word>< asdfas dfasdfasd
+;;     asd asdfa sdfasd sdf
+;;
+;;   and hit M-backspace.  We end up with
+;;
+;;     Foo bar blablabla asdgf
+;;      ><asdfas dfasdfasd asd
+;;      asdfa sdfasd sdf
