My summary is quite different. The current situation seems to be more in tune with what most people expect and what other offices are doing. That said I understand your pain and agree that it sucks for version control usecase. My take on that would be one of those directions: 1. User preference for ignoring CT toggling changes during the session. The CT on/off status would be saved in the same way as it was opened no matter whether the user changed it during editing. 2. Some form of turn on/off permanently vs intermittently, both in menu or it could be tristate. (Code-wise it might be similar to 1. I am thinking more how it appears in GUI to the user.) 3. General preference (not sure if document or user) for ignoring non essential changes, which disturbs version control flow. Similar to 1. but it would encompass e.g. CT on/off, output_changes, GUI justification. I have another candidate here as well - not storing opening/closing insets. Pavel
