5Items are ordered in priority.

7INITRAMFS TODO
8
9- search domain string
10- allow dual stack configuration (IPv4, IPv6) for the same interface
11- "bind-mount" kernel drivers in real root for the rescue image,
12 if the real root does not have any kernel modules for this kernel
13 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1046510
14- use info and warn prefix
15- generate systemd unit dracut-initramfs-restore in /run/systemd dynamically
16- put "root=" parsing hooks in separate hook dir
17- call "root=" parsing hooks after getting new rootpath from dhcp
18- put mount hook in main initqueue loop / careful about resume!
19- the hard-coded list of udev rules that we care about is kind of lame.
20- panic fallback
21- progress indication for fsck https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=827118
22- domain, searchdomain https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=840778

25GENERATOR TODO
26
27- report errors on missing files in check()
28- remove wait for swap devs, if no "resume=" is given on the kernel command line
29- remove wait for swap devs, if the "resume" dracut module is not included (omitted)
30- add presets (predefined set of modules)
31- add interpreter/plugin-scripts to be sourced at the beginning or end (can use dracut-functions)
32- add mechanism for module specific command line options
33- pkg-config integration, to make it easy for other packages to use us.
34- default module specification could use some work
35- udev rule copying, as mentioned above, is a bit too hard-coded
36
37- dracut-install parse LD_SHOW_AUXV="" AT_PLATFORM for lib install
38

42- make function vars local, and prefix with "_"
