Perhaps. A compromise would be to get the more or less trivial ones
(i.e. the tails-greeter controls for windows camouflage etc.) out
quickly in the first point-release, which I don't expect to suck up much
energy (they seem like good procrastination targets to me :)). And as
soon as Vidalia 0.4 goes stable we fix bridge mode since that already is
listed in your vision.

Good enough?

Cheers!
