I'm curious as to how the choice of language would impact @shadow 
functionality.

I've been using them with plain text-as-text files and haven't come across 
issues, but also haven't done any systematic testing. I also have the extra 
"security blanket" that I make sure any files I'm manipulating with Leo are 
under version control, as I'm very aware that my limited understanding of 
Leo is a lot more likely to lead to data loss than any bugs.

Juraj, when the time comes and you want to do some "stress-testing" with 
cloning, have a look at a "standard operating procedure" I've proposed to 
be documented 
here<https://groups.google.com/d/msg/leo-editor/j7BOnRqCFcI/1jIavoqXxLUJ>. 
Further up in that thread I also point to a different SOP the developer 
pointed out in the past to try also. I'd appreciate any feedback you might 
have on these as a method to avoid problems with safely keeping nodes in 
multiple @files, in case that's one of your needs as well, as that's 
generally considered dangerous.

I would also suggest regarding the problem's you've perceived with @shadow, 
create a new .leo file with a minimal test case to demonstrate any problems 
and I'm sure prompt attention will be paid to them if you post them here.
