js: Update comment on possible future enhancements

Load/save has been in the JavaScript backend for a while, as have
prettier controls.  And JavaScript-capable touchscreens are all around
us, if still poorly supported by Puzzles.

  * Further thoughts on possible enhancements:

- *  - I think it might be feasible to have these JS puzzles permit

- *    loading and saving games in disk files. Saving would be done by

- *    constructing a data: URI encapsulating the save file, and then

- *    telling the browser to visit that URI with the effect that it

- *    would naturally pop up a 'where would you like to save this'

- *    dialog box. Loading, more or less similarly, might be feasible

- *    by using the DOM File API to ask the user to select a file and

- *    permit us to see its contents.

- *

  *  - I should think about whether these webified puzzles can support

- *    touchscreen-based tablet browsers (assuming there are any that

- *    can cope with the reasonably modern JS and run it fast enough to

- *    be worthwhile).

+ *    touchscreen-based tablet browsers.

  *

  *  - think about making use of localStorage. It might be useful to

  *    let the user save games into there as an alternative to disk

  *    probably rather have a nice simple 'quick save' and 'quick load'
