Comment (by tbrooks):
This is probably too far off track for the above ticket, but certainly
when working with the INSPIRE overlay the problem with formats is two-
fold:
1) The above naming/reinstalling convention causes problems (which for the
most part can be solved by INSPIRE renaming things correctly)
2) The WYSIWYG editor for formats, which is one of the key selling points
of Invenio is rather hard to use if you have the reasonable practice of
storing your overlay files in a source repository. It would be nice if
bibformat_admin allowed a config variable for CFG_FORMAT_REPO location and
when "saving" in the web interface it saved bft and bfo files in the repo
as well as in the installed code. This way the step of finding and
fetching the formats back from the installed location is obviated, and the
possibility of making changes that are overwritten by git checkout/deploys
is lessened.
