Hi Edward,

I don't know how often this has been asked:
What if options would not be set via head or body of a node but be 
attributes of this node?
Of course not Class attributes but attributes of specific instances to keep 
everything smaller.

Why I'm asking:

Today I tried to integrate my code nodes into my yet to be written 
bachelor-thesis. 
And I found out: 
1) how shortsighted I am (unfortunately a often returning insight)
2) how to do it

Besides being superhappy now I still wonder about the way to set the 
options.

One benefit would be 
(aside from having a cleaner tree and using title and body for what they 
are, that is title and body)  
that one could imagine other viewers of the codebase.

For example one could have Nodes for developers or versions or dates......

A viewer that would help with project development would then associate 
developers and their written code.
A viewer that would help with project management would organize tasks or 
calendars or dates or whatnot.
A viewer that would help with file management would show directories and 
files (and maybe lines or shapes or sounds ....) as nodes ....
 
What do you think ?

Have viewers that can not be sure that a certain attribute even exist but 
try nevertheless? 

Stupid and useless or worth it ?

Greetings,

Holger
