TODO List / Roadmap of upcoming changes/features.
-------------------------------------------------
 grep for TODO in code for known bugs/problems.
-------------------------------------------------

Obvious:
 - Bug fixes.
 - Better error handling in NQueue/NNet interaction.

NNet:
 - Move re-usable code from NFtp to NNet.
 - "Extended" operations, protocol specific.
   - Need an easy way to present themselves to NQueue without module specific
     code being required. Probably to be done by accepting a mapping of
     requirements and placement of the ExOp at module load.

NFtp:
 - Timeouts for data connection openings and closing (from last data received).
 - Handle remote recursive deletions.
 - See about making sure abort returns an always usable connection.
   - Not always possible without reconnection due to some FTP daemons.
 - Handle FXPs.
 - Move/Rename support (testing, mostly... its already in there.)
 - Possible TLS/SSL layer.
 - Minimum/Maximum transfer speed limiting.
 - "Instant" transfer rate tracking.
 - Retrieving portions of single files (for single-file multithreading)
 - "Extended" operations:
   - FXP, chmod, TLS/SSL.
 - Handle obvious non-public IPs for both local and remote.
   - Do not *always* want to change them, if its an available network
     on the current machine, though. Perhaps if connection ip does not
     match the IP given in a PASV/PORT.

NQueue:
 - Keep all statistics accurate for one queue execution session.
   - Currently, AutoClears mess up the Totals within the ListView
     This is non-critical, and mostly aesthetic. NQueue itself still
     keeps the correct total of transfers completed since queue exec.
 - Allow for subsets of the queue to be transfered/executed.
   - If I want files 2, 4, 5 and 7 from Host 2 transfered now, do it.
     Currently the entire queue must be transfered.
   - Set starting times and priorities to files/entries.
   - "Instant" transfer from the GUI window, giving the highest priority
     to the new selections and transfering them on demand.
 - Allocation of two or more NNet objects to a single queue entry.
   - For FXPs, Multithreaded single files, etc.
 - Change data storage to use something more suited to the new requirements.
 - Pause/Stop clarification
   - Pause allows current transfers to complete before stopping.
   - Stop aborts current transfers and stops queue execution.

NNetPluginManager:
 - Pre-loading of all protocol modules in a specified directory.
   Dynamically definable, with a compile-time default.
 - See NNet's description of "Extended" Operations.

nvemFTP:
 - Redo the Quick Connect section to be more usable.
   - Enter should connect from any field.
   - Drop down listing of available protocols (dependent on pre-loading, above).
 - Remember layouts and column widths. Easily reset to "defaults".
 - New toolbar (to go with the Quick Connect, possibly one in the same.)
 - Visible feedback of current remote host(s).

FtpView:
 - Symlinks: Special icon, show what it is referencing.
 - Handle Devices?
 - Different menus for local vs remote.
 - Lock user interaction when performing transfers.
   - Requires communication with NQueue/NNet.

Future Classes/Tasks:
 - Module/Script system to execute upon file/directory/queue completion.
   - Probably a modular system with a default module to execute a script on event.
 - NSFtp
   - sshv2 (possible v1) file transfer subsystem.
 - NBookmarkManager (and subsidiaries)
   - Bookmark/HostInfo system.
     - Allow for host-specific settings dependent on the protocol associated.
       - Passive/Active, max connections, min speed, max speed, timeouts, etc.
   - Commandline lookup for bookmarks, one-time modifications via other switches.
