+ * add an option to rtarea for onehit. this is probably best as an
+ option that reports the requested objects only and then has a
+ verbose option for the more detailed hiearchical report that is
+ currently produced.
+
+ * verify rtarea. There are reports that the rtarea
+ command may have a bug in its calculations. This needs to be
+ investigated.
+
+ * review and fix rtarea's taxonomy for describing
+ presented/projected areas. users expect presented area to
+ represent what is currently referred to as exposed area. may make
+ more sense to introduce a different terms for other shotline
+ encounters.
+
+ * make rtarea display a cross-hair and perhaps coordinates for the
+ center of area if run from within mged.
