1. Currently, the consensus seems to be that the menu and tool bar are

    any work being done on that.

I think the main toolbars look fine in GNOME, the one in the scratch buffer for sure. Maybe I'd like it to be less tall, but that seems minor.

Do you like it, or does it not look good on your system?

3. We currently don't ship any fonts with GNU Emacs.  Maybe we should
    consider doing that?  It seems to me that many other applications do.
    Or maybe we should introduce a stronger set of default fonts for
    different systems.

IIRC Eli said that we can't distribute fonts for our own use only, whatever fonts are needed the user will have to install system-wide, or put into ~/.fonts, at least.

It's a technical limitation, and maybe someone would like to take a shot at it someday.
