I am fine with listing anything, as long as it is effective and useful
to the reader.  I explained in my recent email why I considered that to
be very hard for performance items, but with help I think it can be
achieved.  New optimizer items are a good example --- we reference plan
types.  I need help in how other items can have similar effectiveness.

  Do not let urgent matters crowd out time for investment in the future.
