Yes, you are right.
But in my case, I review every picture after pasting, because there are always
adjustments to do.
However, I admit it would make sense to warn the user that X pictures are
awaiting changes, etc.
For me, it ought to happen this way :
- easy-to-implement from the dev-team side. If it takes ages to do, it's not
worth the effort.
- something like temporary entries into the xmps, or even temporary xmps
besides the others.
- optionnally, at export, or exit from DT, a dialog box warning and asking what
to do
- something in the menus to erase those files / entries if wished.
I was a programmer long time ago, when programming on 8-bits processors in
assembly language
(when not in machine-language !) took nights and nights for a few KBs.
I have absolutely no idea of what programming on nowadays systems is.
But I know sometime things that seem the easiest to achieve are those that
consume the most resources.
I just hope it won't be the case there. Else, once again, not worth the goal.
