hooray. and complicate app development massively in the process. edje is there
for when u want to get advanced, NOT for just writing your regular-joe apps.
the app dev now needs to have a comp[ile setup for an edc file, install it,
find it and load it all at runtime as well as have to hunt down a part name,
find it and then finally do everything they could have done with 1 line of code
(that now became multiple lines just to use  an external edje file). they also
now need to wrestle with a whole new language, syntax, file, set of keys,
properties and so on that they don't know just to get a very simple thing done.

you are doing nobody a favor by pushing this agenda. i see confusion and
complaints every single day because of this push to use edje as the "way to do
a gui layout" that is better done using ju7st basic boxes, tables etc. etc.
inline in the code.

use edje WHERE APPROPRIATE. not WHENEVER YOU CAN.
