-*- org -*- In no particular order: * Improve support for smartcard ** display status during smartcard access, since it often takes longer than a second (idea: simply disable refresh button?) ** display messages "please attach reader" in case no smartcard reader is attached ** generate-new-key-pair button if card contains no key. ** check if cardman releases the smartcard (reader) as it should. maybe we have to destroy the cardman instance instead of simply hiding it. ** button for automatic retrieval of key through url field? * Redo the key generation wizard stuff, as it is one ugly hack on top of another at this point. ** It should also print a progress indicator as the expert mode does. * Dialogs should check user input and react to it. ** Don't allow the user to go on unless the input makes sense (particularly for the advanced key generation dialog and the import dialog). ** Select options automatically if it's clearly what the user intends For example, if a filename is written in the export dialog, obviously the user intends to export to a file. We should either check the "export to file" radio button automatically, or disable the file entry unless it's checked. * The file decrypt operation should also show signatures, if available. ** Problem: If we do a file-based operation and the file list contains mixed files like detached signatures and inline decrypted files, should a Decrypt/Verify operation should do its best to do the right thing for each file? * Add more options to the "Edit key" dialog. ** Manage UID's. ** Manage subkeys. * Check which options should be available from the toolbar. Draw new icons if needed. * Documentation! * Support a "File Status" (encrypted, signed, etc..) column in the filemanager, if GPGME allows it. * [W32] Clipboard encryption * Support drag and drop in the file manager * There is no way to refresh selected keys from the keyserver. We might also want to have a scheduled refresh mode. But that might be better implemented in gpg. * Cardman ** We don't care about duplicate keys In particular with X.509 it is common to use the same key (keygrip) with several certificates. GpaKeyDetails can't cope with that but uses the first key found. * MB: ** Support getting plaintext from verify operation (should emit "created file" then). Done for clipboard. Also needed for normal file ops and server. ** Convert the windows registry strings for the home dir to the glib filename encoding, or rather to utf8 and from there to the glib filename encoding. Use the wide character interfaces for that. ** We need to make sure the server code works with the socket path containing non-7bit ASCII characters under Windows! ** We also need to make sure that under Unix with filename encoding being different from UTF-8, everything works as expected. All displayed filenames should be converted with g_filename_to_utf8! ** Support receiving keys from keyservers for unknown certificates, by right click in "Signatures" tab of keyring manager and for all unknown keys in that list at once. ** Make signer selection list a bit larger than one row. ** Change gpa_window_error to use gtk_label_set_line_wrap and remove all those newlines. ** The sign, encrypt dialog and progress bar is not centered over the parent. Maybe it is realized too early due to init vs constructor? It does get the right parent window parameter (checked that). ** Use GtkActionGroups instead of manual GLists for update sensitivity and stuff. ** Not all users know about ctrl+click to select multiple items from a list. Use check boxes, or add instructions, or otherwise make this easier. - Or print a hint in the status bar the first time something is selected. Such hints helped me a lot to get acquainted with JOSM [wk]. ** The keyserver setting should remember the strings entered by the user. ** In the expiration widget, the expire after and the calender widgets should be synchronized. ** When doing signing etc operations, gpa keylist should filter out expired and otherwise unusable keys. When an operation fails (due to bad key, for example), GPA creates a signature of zero bytes and shows a window with a hung progress bar and a greyed cancel button that is not sensitive. ** When a file in the file manager is deleted, and one tries to encrypt it, GPA gives an untranslated error (mingw C lib syserr) and then shows an empty window with just a close button (Urgs!). ** A right mouse click on the keylist in the keyring editor while the pop up menu is shown makes the popup menu vanish, but does not pop up the new menu for the key that should now be current but is not. ** The config file parser truly sucks. It has buffer overflows and corrupts broken config files even more (for example, a single line "keyserver" will cause the next word to move to the keyserver line). ** Make the build clean with the flags: -DG_DISABLE_DEPRECATED -DGDK_PIXBUF_DISABLE_DEPRECATED -DGDK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED -DGTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED -DPANGO_DISABLE_DEPRECATED -DGDK_MULTIHEAD_SAFE -DGTK_MULTIHEAD_SAFE This is mostly done, except for multi-head safeness and gtk marshalling. ** multi-file operations and errors When doing multi-file verify/decrypt, we may ignore more errors as to make more progress. This seems more useful than the current behavior. ** FileChooser Dialog with pseudo-random window size When clicking "import" in the keyring manager, the FileChooser pops up in a tiny window most of the time -- sometimes the window size is just right. (It seems this bug is fixed in Upstream and will hopefully find it's way into distributions) ** keyring manager window changes it's size in a counter-intuitive way After startup the keyring manager is displayed in a rather compact window. When selecting a key, the window increases it's size -- sometimes dramatically! It's not obvious why the window needs to be that big. Note: the "detailed view" mode is not enabled. ** Window Icon not used It seems, GPA windows have no icon set. Besides: GTK+ has a rather nice key icon in it's stock: GTK_STOCK_AUTHENTICATION_DIALOG. Using that would probably look more natural in a GNOME environment. * GUI ** Use a fixed-size font We should use a fixed-size font at certain places (e.g. display of fingerprints) ** Resizing of widgets In the cardmanager: when activating the expander for a key fingerprint, the key details widget appers. But that widget's width is bounded by the width of the expander's label (the fingerprint). I think the expander's width should be allowed to grow in case there's unused space to the right of the expander widget. ** Keygenwizard Immediately show an error description if the entered values does not pass the validation function. * Building * Bugs ** Error messages while switching simplified mode. This happens with the gpa-details-view and might be related to siglist.c
