+TODO
+====
+
+This file contains a list of improvements which are desireable and/or have
+been requested, and which we aim to address/implement when time and resources
+permit.
+
+It is *not* a roadmap and there's no guarantee of any item being implemented
+within any given timeframe.

+Enable suspension of repmgrd failover
+-------------------------------------
+
+When performing maintenance, e.g. a switchover, it's necessary to stop all
+repmgrd nodes to prevent unintended failover; this is obviously inconvenient.
+We'll need to implement some way of notifying each repmgrd to suspend automatic
+failover until further notice.
