38 C.20 Erratic EdgeScroll behavior [#766,2.4,2001-08-21]. Fixed?
43 D.2 Leave or remove the current change to triggering bindings on button press

60 [dv: added on 02-Mar-2003]
62 E.16 Rename all "Pixmap" in the syntax to "Image" while supporting both.
63 Rename MultiPixmap to MultiPart, since it also accepts Solid and

66 [dv: I wouldn't do that anymore. That syntax will be removed soon after
67 the 2.6 release, so the clean up work is in vain.]
