So I would prefer that's this feature doesn't go in.
Reading this ringed a BIG warning in my mind. You need to be careful with the way Edje is done. I did not review the code, but let's remember that: - All references are done by integer identifier. Order will affect that! When you provide insert_before and insert_after, do you recalculate all your ids and reassign them? I recall it was a painful work to do in Edje_Edit - remember about PART:"name" and PROGRAM:"name"... what to do when part is deleted? Do you remember to create a new program and recompile it with the new references on insert_before/after? - what to do with dependencies? One part is relative to another... it is deleted... then? Please consider all these issues, create tests and prove it is right before merging it.
