It may be necessary to turn Drei off by default, as there are still some somewhat-serious problems:
- Reader macros are poorly handled by the Lisp syntax, leading to possible
Listener breakage.
- Delimiter gestures do not work properly for some reason (rtoy has been
affected by this).
- Sometimes, Lisp syntax is not properly enabled when the input buffer is
changed via the presentation history or similar.
- Sometimes, Drei will move its output record when stuff is inserted. I
*suspect* this is not the same bug as the one triggered by Closure.
Would it be OK by you to leave *use-goatee* as nil, but mention these problems prominently in the release notes? (The major points of a release, at least from my point of view, are to have a reference point in time, and to have an excuse to make an announcement; if we can get people to run the code, their feedback might help to narrow down the causes of various problems... but they're most likely to start by running the system in its default configuration).
