I've been slowly transitioning the TODO list to a github issue tracker

All four of those apply only to arm32. arm64 either has them already
(first three), or it doesn't apply (protect vector, IIUC, is
arm32-specific).

I'm not aware of anyone working on those currently, so they would be
very welcome! :)

Thanks for reaching out!
