+- In -man -Thtml, .nf does not preserve indentation.
+ It should either convert blanks to
+ or use <pre> rather than <div> (like .Bd -literal does).

- .Bf at the beginning of a paragraph inserts a bogus 1ex horizontal
space, see for example random(3). Introduced in

+- provide a way in mandoc(1) to warn about broken .Xr links;

- How does SQLITE_CONFIG_PAGECACHE actually work? Document it!

Several areas can be cleaned up to make mandoc even faster. These are
* structural issues
************************************************************************
-- Use libz directly instead of forking gunzip(1).
- Suggested by bapt at FreeBSD among others.
-
- We use the input line number at several places to distinguish
same-line from different-line input. That plainly doesn't work
with user-defined macros, leading to random breakage.
- struct mparse refactoring

-- Consider creating some views that will make the database more
- readable from the sqlite3 shell. Consider using them to
- abstract from the database structure, too.
