I thought I'd kick this around before submitting a feature request.
I've been comparing a bit of code recently in XML and it's a noisy
process because of the inline storage of the GUI state of each
editable object.
Two otherwise identical projects can have massive differences because
of all the <StartSelRow>24</StartSelRow> etc.
As I do quite a lot of XML work I know that it is not a *necessary*
pattern to keep everything inline - you can have references
elsewehere in the document and break it into sections, with highly
volatile data like that in one section.
That would keep the source code of objects pure source code and make
diffs much easier.
Is this important enough to anyone else to be worth requesting?
Andy
