I have a bunch of optimizer tweaking that I'd like to finish before 7.0,
but perhaps that doesn't qualify as a major open issue.  There's no
single item there that I would rank as "must fix or don't ship"; yet
I feel we need to make some progress in that area.

I think there are also a lot of unresolved questions about interlocking
and updating of the catalog caches and relcache.  These might be
must-fix items.  IIRC, Hiroshi is pretty concerned about that area...
