Could you make a comprehensive list of all features under development, or link to the place where they might be tracked?
Honestly, other than the things brought up in this thread. The only items I'm aware of being actively worked on are GSoC projects. Those are the rendering caching work, css related work, javascript related work, and the kml<->svg conversion work. Unfortunately the latter 2 are not as communicative as I would like, so I'm unsure of their status.
Nicolas Dufour did some more work on image embedding/linking management dialogs few weeks ago. Not sure what the current status is, but I'd probably take a risk of trying to fit it in.
I haven't tested it yet, but he said it was not quite ready for primetime. I do plan on taking a look sometime this week though.
So, what's the plan for 0.49 as of now? One GSoC project is in, two more are reportedly ready for merging. What abut the rest?
According to the respective mentors, more cleanup work needs to be done on both of the projects prior to merging (in other words, not ready for merging). Given the issues we have with the new renderer and that it seems some patches will be necessary for pixman (bitmaps resized smaller for example) and possibly cairo too, don't count on it too soon.
