Some updates

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  
   *  Add support for font-variant. Limited support of this was available in 0.20.5.
   *  Support font-family lists to make life easier for our users. (should be resolved as part of the FOray integration)
-  *  The ability to skip XML Metrics generation has been added, but it had not been thoroughly tested or documented.
+  *  Add TTC support for font auto-detection/auto-configuration
+  *  Add some sort of font substitution mechanism (becomes necessary with auto-detection)

   * Avoid type casting where possible.
   * Can different orientation and stacking directions be handled? Should document extensions have an extension handler so that user defined extension can be handled?
   * Bring back all the other renderers: SVG, MIF
+  * Possible new renderers: Mars & SVG Print (relatively easy once SVG output is restored), XPS
+  * Possible new FO event handlers: ODF (Open Document Format)
   * Revisit the way absolutely positioned areas are rendered. The break-out mechanism can probably be avoid by taking the area out of the normal flow. Maybe look at z-index at the same time.
