This is my v2.22 wish list. The list contains large/invasive tasks only.
Comments, volunteers, .... ? ;-)

* release in May/Jun 2012

* add PARTUUID= and PARTLABEL= support to mount/fsck by partition UUID/LABEL
- add to libblkid blkid_evaluate_* API
- support in libmount
- add regression tests

* make uuidd (uuid daemon) compatible with systemd
- add --no-fork
- add --no-pid (pid file)
- add systemd unit file
- add #ifdef LIBUUID_EXEC_UUIDD to disable uuidd exec from library

* fdisk
- move mbr (dos) stuff to fdiskmbrlabel.c
- add GPT support

* clean up DBG() macro in libblkid
- see libmount version

* add dasd support to libblkid

* non-recursive build-system (now many files from lib/ are compileted
more than once), see:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.utilities.util-linux-ng/3297
