• content of the popups (and whether or not to have popups at all)

• line offsets Add "offset" support to CSS styles #117
• layers MapCSS feature layer support #118
• line-cap, line-join
• z-ordering
• eval for text rendering (like JOSM) (related to Enhancement (beyond mapcss?): allow text property to have a string literal, or at least key (not value) #235)
• implement zoom level filters
• improved label placement better polygon label placement  #261
• (?) way direction markers, e.g. for oneway roads (https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/54584/overpass-get-way-direction)
• expose metadata for mapcss filters different users request (OSM quality) #352, expose id of object in the map style #356
