I used xournal++ for a few hours yesterday to test, here are some notes/bugs
about it:

1) Using rectangle select as middle mouse button (pen button) doesn't work.

2) Undo seems to redraw in 2 steps, separated by a second or two, and a crash
always soon follows.

3) The Autosave/restore needs a UI.

4) After strokes are drawn they are re-drawn, it appears with slightly different
width or anti-aliasing.

5) Toolbar edit (great!!!!) drag & drop to toolbars doesn't work.

6) Adding toolbar handles and letting the user drag them would be a better UI.

7) All the different types of toolbars needs to be cleaned up...

8) The added grey borders are not useful, IMHO it's just wasted screen space.
Also the red border around the active page is not needed, I think.  I assume
this is because you want to know which page is "active" for e.g. pasting.  I
never had any trouble with xournal this way.

9) Initial zoom is giving me a page much smaller than my screen (this could be
partially the X server's fault)

10) Some UI elements are now focusable with the keyboard (e.g. zoom slider).
Long ago I submitted a patch that made all UI elements send focus back to the
canvas so that the arrow keys on the bezel of tablet pc's would always scroll
the page instead of e.g. changing the zoom when a UI element is focused.

12) The "very fine" pen has been removed.  The finest pen is too fat for my
taste.

13) Memory usage is drastically reduced.  That's FANTASTIC.

Great work Andreas!  Let's get this thing into a release-able state!
