+* Bring set/setw/show/showw into line with other commands. This means that by
+  default they now affect the current window (if any); the new -g flag must be
+  passed to set the global options. This changes the behaviour of set/show and
+  WILL BREAK CURRENT CONFIGURATIONS.
+
+  In summary, whether in the configuration file, the command prompt, or a key
+  binding, use -g to set a global option, use -t to specify a particular window
+  or session, or omit both to try and use the current window or session.
+
+  This makes set/show a bit of a pain but is the correct behaviour for
+  setw/showw and is the same as every other command, so we can put up with a
+  bit of pain for consistency.
+* Redo window options. They now work in the same way to session options with a
+  global options set. showw/setw commands now have similar syntax to show/set
+  (including the ability to use abbreviations).
+
+  PLEASE NOTE this includes the following configuration-breaking changes:
+  
+  - remain-by-default is now GONE, use "setw -g remain-on-exit" to apply the
+    global window option instead;
+  - mode-keys is now a window option rather than session - use "setw [-g]
+    mode-keys" instead of set.
+  
+  There are also some additions:
+
+  - message-fg and message-bg session options to control status line message
+    colours;
+  - mode-fg and mode-bg window options to set colours in window modes such as
+    copy mode.
+
+  The options code still a mess and now there is twice as much of it :-(.
