Only missing features are (that I remember now..):

  - fully non-blocking network I/O (maybe 60% done)
  - allow arbitrary per-message data to be stored in indexes, so it's 
easier to add optional data into indexes (eg. currently there's mbox 
file offsets and md5 sums). currently it's a bit kludgy.
  - keywords handling is still completely broken.

Then maybe some optimizations.

After 1.0 I'm planning on redoing some of the APIs to allow plugins of 
all kinds to exist and easily do pretty much whatever they want.

I haven't specifically thought when which feature will be implemented. 
Some are there just as a reminder that I should probably some day add 
them. Some are waiting for other things to be implemented so they could 
be easily implemented.
