 [ ] abstract away appendChild
 [ ] font-size should be set as css property for a class of text, rather than
     per each gobj in svg
-[x] remove the "fudge_factor" kludge in g_rtext.c, and handle fonts in a sane
-    manner.  In doing so we must decide whether or not we want to be able to
-    fetch the bounding box of objects from within a Pd patch.
-    (Currently [canvasinfo] and [objectinfo] are the only objects that can
-    do this, though there might also be some externals). Note: we just
-    moved the kludge to the GUI.
-[x] replace things like gui_select_color with css
 [ ] find a better approach to escaping characters for the gui than
     escape_double_quotes kludge (and handle any other problematic chars)
-[x] look into using <def> and <use> for scalars. (Looked into it-- doesn't
-    seem necessary or helpful...)
-[x] in draw_vis, make circle and ellipse radii attr floats instead of ints
-[x] should stroke-dasharray values be floats? (Yes.)
 [ ] once garrays are drawn inside a <g> we won't have to individually erase

 [ ] make pdgui function names more consistent
 [ ] in draw_vis, move tags to front of function call so they don't have to
     be in an array
 [ ] in draw_vis, remove all the coords logic and let svg_togui do that work.
     In svg_new, leverage the "d", "points", etc. methods to do the same.
 [ ] remove the draw_vis warning/code about needing 2 points to draw
-[x] need to clean up dead windows inside patchwin object (on close)
 [ ] make gui_menu_close message less hacky (currently includes patch args in
     the middle) 
 [ ] figure out why -nrt flag causes Pd to bail on the GUI (it wasn't doing this
     on the amd_64 virtual Jessie machine, nor on my 32-bit machine).
 [ ] make dialogs with [yes/no] instead of [cancel/ok]
-[x] make a gui_mess interface for the edge cases that don't require args

-[x] make sure we're breaking down the socket properly from the GUI side on quit
-[ ] looks like nwworkingdir isn't working for open/save dialogs atm
-[x] nwworkingdir only works on the second file open
-[x] implement the stuff at the end of saveas_callback (recentfiles et al)
-[x] make an "export" menu command for max patch saving.  That way we can accept
-    a single extension for saving (.pd), and the native save dialog will warn

-    extension). (Note: this was solved by putting a ".pd" extension in the
