I was thinking about this the other day as a way of keeping and enforcing common XML formatting, I am of course an indentation freak :-) (It frustrates me as I find it makes documents less readable, and thus uses my time) I thought I'd just wait for conglomerate (http://www.conglomerate.org/) to get more stable, but I didn't realize that there were so many gnome-doc specific things it would not do. I think this is a very good idea, I may hack something up in Python/GTK+ later. Does anybody else think this is a good idea ?
