hello,

I have been evaluating XXE v3.0 for use as the editor for a set of 
product documentation (currently in Latex, being converted to DocBook). 
I am very impressed with the quality, features and flexibility. However, 
one small point poses a large obstacle - support of entities (used as 
text macros):
<! ENTITY product "<productname>The Product</productname>">

XXE substitutes the entity reference &product; with the replacement 
text, thus losing the whole point of using macros.  Use of macros is 
such a fundamental feature, I am wondering whether I haven't missed 
something. I can't imagine that a professional editor does not support 
this. Please tell me there is a way to do this, I would really like to 
recommend XXE to my customer.

thanks in advance
Chris Clark
