This is a question to which I am expecting the answer "no", but it seems
worth asking.
Does anyone have a reasonable list of UNDOCUMENTED Motif restrictions,
preferably with a classification into the following categories?
More-or-less plain bugs
Temporary restrictions
Long-term restrictions
Fundamental design restrictions
I have been converting from the HP widgets (with HP's X11.2-and-a-bit) to
Motif and X11.3, and notice that a great many of the restrictions of the
former have gone. Unfortunately, a great many remain, and I have no easy
way of telling whether they are temporary or permanent.
If anyone is maintaining such a list, I am happy to provide input, but I
do not have the time (or expertise) to maintain such a list myself.
