Resolving CustomData, should only be a few hrs work max, discussing
the changes may take more time then just making them.
So I'll create a patch this week which resolves the custom-data issues
I raised, Tamito can check its ok.


I'm more worried about script execution, this is an issue Brecht
raised too. Currently scripts creates absolute paths to the blender
installation directory that gets saved into blend files, while not so
hard to resolve - but this sort of thing we shouldn't be changing once
in trunk since its saved into files.
Tamito - your OK to have this changed to use Text blocks instead?
If this is changed wont it break existing files that use scripts which
were made in the branch? if so is that acceptable?

Would be good if you could come onto IRC to discuss the best way to
deal with this, its not so complicated but need to consider a few
factors and I'd hate to think we make bad choice because we weren't
able to communicate and rushed the feature into trunk.
