Mythmusic - Underway, but the way mythmusic heavily integrated the UI with 
guts of the code means that nothing short of an entire re-write is needed in 
places. I've started but this isn't going to be finished overnight and the 
finished product isn't going to be the same as what I started with which could 
be a problem for some people.

Mythgame - Greg is re-writing the plugin to better take advantage of the new 
UI capabilities.

In the frontend - Schedule edit dialog, Recording Profiles dialog, Programme 
Finder and Programme Guide are the major ones which come to mind. There are 
probably a few more examples.

In Mythtv-setup - the icon browser/downloader.

There are also many uses of the old confirmation/menu dialogs littered around 
the the place - most of these would be an easy target for anyone who isn't 
intimately familiar with the new UI.

APIConfig for xmltv - I was waiting on mythui to mature for this to be done 
properly. It's one of the reasons I took on the task of the mythui port in the 
first place.

Extend the use of taglib in mythmusic to ogg/flac and other supported tag 
formats. Not a priority for 0.22, but it's not too difficult and might allow 
us to drop further external dependencies as well as making it much faster.
