+ Some types of printouts to screen during test runs
+ (including <c>ct:print/1,2,3,4</c>) used the local
+ <c>user</c> process as IO device and these printouts
+ would not be visible when e.g. running tests via a shell
+ on a remote node. A default Common Test group leader
+ process has been introduced to solve the problem. This
+ process routes printouts to the group leader of the
+ starting process, if available, otherwise to <c>user</c>.</p>

+ Some Common Test processes, that act as I/O group leaders
+ for test cases, would not terminate as expected at the
+ end of test runs. This error has been corrected.</p>

+ The logging verbosity feature was incorrectly documented.
+ The default verbosity levels for test runs is e.g. not 50
+ (<c>?STD_VERBOSITY</c>), but 100 (<c>?MAX_VERBOSITY</c>).
+ Also, some of the examples had errors and flaws. The
+ corresponding chapter (5.18) in the User's Guide has been
+ updated.</p>

+ A feature to let the user specify headings to log
+ printouts has been added. The heading is specified as
+ <c>{heading,string()}</c> in the <c>Opts</c> list
+ argument to <c>ct:pal/3,4,5</c>, <c>ct:print/3,4,5</c>,
+ or <c>ct:log/3,4,5</c>. If the heading option is omitted,
+ the category name, or <c>"User"</c>, is used as the
+ heading instead.</p>
