I tend to agree with your opinion.

Here is (part of) my wish/todo list. These ones are related to code,
to balance the lists already given :)
- continue to cleanup the dependency graph between files, so we do not
have to link useless stuff into server/editor/whatever. Eventually
use shared libraries to avoid duplicating compiled code between the
binaries, and make it easier to reuse the wesnoth core.
- make it possible to run standalone (python, but also possibly
perl/scheme/whatever) scripts to automate things like production of
screenshots for the docs in all supported languages.
- improve the zipios thing, which is really not efficient
performance-wise
- rework the way user campaigns are loaded (and how they are allowed
to ship other elements like units), so that it fits in the general way
things are done - the ad-hoc nature of the current solution is the
origin of user campaigns showing up twice when zipios is used.
- finish the adaptation to low-resolution devices (PDA), including:
- rework the gui/dialogs stuff to make it fully theme-able: it is a
shame I have to recompile the game and use #ifdef's whenever I'd like
to adapt a dialog for the PDA port. This includes breaking the
current monolithic dialog core.
- UI improvements to make the game really playable with a stylus only
- preformance improvement, probably including switching some of the
remaining floating-point computations to fixed-point, like I already
did with graphics stuff.
Best regards,
