Besides all that, removing\r\ntodo.txt makes porting runtime patches a bit easier.\r\n\r\nWith that said it should be clear that I'm pretty biased in favor of doing this,\r\nso what does everyone else think?"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/neovim/neovim/issues/comments/159763476","html_url":"https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/3741#issuecomment-159763476","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/neovim/neovim/issues/3741","id":159763476,"user":{"login":"equalsraf","id":715238,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/715238?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/equalsraf","html_url":"https://github.com/equalsraf","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/equalsraf/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/equalsraf/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/equalsraf/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/equalsraf/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/equalsraf/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/equalsraf/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/equalsraf/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/equalsraf/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/equalsraf/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-11-26T00:12:14Z","updated_at":"2015-11-26T00:12:14Z","body":":+1 in general todo.txt is not that useful.\r\n\r\nThe only other reference I found is in [syntax_conceal_spec.lua](https://github.com/neovim/neovim/blob/536c0ba27e79929eb30850d8e11f2ed026930ab3/test/functional/ui/syntax_conceal_spec.lua#L163), maybe [its this](https://github.com/neovim/neovim/blob/632408af4a3baa987cc13005675bba63675825cb/runtime/doc/todo.txt#L697)"}}
