  . better validity checking of deeply nested commands
+ . check that @set and @clear only appear at the start of a line
  . warn about missing menu entries even if CHECK_NORMAL_MENU_STRUCTURE is
    not set.  you can turn this off by setting CHECK_MISSING_MENU_ENTRY to 0.
- . @set and @clear should only appear at the start of a line
- . --enable-encoding and --disable-encoding no longer determine whether
-   encoded characters are output instead of entities or commands for
-   HTML, XML, DocBook and LaTeX; instead, the value of the OUTPUT_CHARACTERS
-   customization variable is used.
- . use any input encoding known by iconv and Perl in the XS (default) parser.

  . stricter checks on input encoding, in particular more warnings and
-   errors with malformed UTF-8.
- . An alias referring to another alias at definition time is resolved.
- . Add source marks in the tree for all Texinfo source information that
-   is not in the final tree (location of macro, values and included files
-   expansion, @if* blocks, DEL comment, @ protecting end of line on @def*
-   lines).
