Over the last year or so, I have used @auto-x more and more (in particular, 
@auto-md) because I like the 'clean' external files that replicate the 
organization of the nodes in Leo. However, more recently as I began relying 
on tagging, back links and clones, I am running into major limitations with 
@auto-x (and to a lesser extent with @clean). (See also the recent post on 
uA storage.)

What would be really beneficial would be a 'hybrid' @<file> type that 
writes and maintains org structure  (node headline text) in the external 
file based on @language (md, org-mode, rst, etc.) while also utilizing the 
tagging, linking and cloning features of Leo. As I see it (please correct 
me if this assumptions are wrong):

   - @file maintains all of the Leo features described, but the external 
   file includes sentinels.
   - @clean keeps uA information (tags, links, etc), but loses cloning 
   information. Also, @clean *does not* write node headline text to external 
   files.
   - @auto-x loses both uA and cloning information, but *does* write node 
   headline text into external files (based on type).


Thoughts or ideas?
