I don't understand what more can be done:

* Right-click on the icon of the collapser, the little triangle, and 
you'll have a useful menu. (On the Mac, Control click)

* Now that you have the toggleCollapsed command, you can put smart 
collapse/expand commands anywhere in the GUI.

This is already supported by XXE. See ``proprietary'' CSS property 
"collapsed" in 
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/docs/poweruser/ar01s06s03.html#collapsibleblocks

I remember your request perfectly well.

"Rearranging list-items in a list" will be one of the demos of the new 
``macro-commands on the steroids'' which will be available in XXE V2.6.
