------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Aug 8 08:58:24 +0000 2008 ------- Having read briefly the specification, there are some things that worry me. I might have misunderstood the specification. How does CUT/COPY/PASTE behave? More precisely, is the META-data lost? This would be bad. Although the meta-data content will be often accessed/extracted by external applications (scripts, other programs), user actions like CUT/COPY/PASTE need to preserve this meta-data, too. I hope this is kept in mind when implementing this issue. The point is, the major use of meta-data is in *reusing content*, so there is really no difference between manual reuse (cut/copy/paste) and automatised reuse (meta-data extraction by external applications). If the text-object looses its meta-data during cut/copy/paste than the most useful feature gets lost. The meta-data was a single use issue. Sometimes it might be necessary to strip away all/some meta-data, BUT this is a completely different issue (and needs to be addressed within the security framework). This is not an issue of meta-data per se. So, I would keep these 2 issues separate and always preserve the meta-data. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
