-Write Texinfo documentation for grep. The manual page would be a good
-place to start, but Info documents are also supposed to contain a
-tutorial and examples.
-
-Fix the DFA matcher to never use exponential space. (Fortunately, these
-cases are rare.)
-
-Improve the performance of the regex backtracking matcher. This matcher
-is agonizingly slow, and is responsible for grep sometimes being slower
-than Unix grep when backreferences are used.
-
-Provide support for the Posix [= =] and [. .] constructs. This is
-difficult because it requires locale-dependent details of the character
-set and collating sequence, but Posix does not standardize any method
-for accessing this information!
