But anyway, it changes it in a way that fails the validator.... I
would prefer if it left it alone after creation.

Also, I find the custom form editor is an anti-feature...
 * it gets in the way as soon as the .yaml file gets complex
 * it has fixed-size text box, and to undo the changes one has to
remove lines one by one

I would prefer a .yaml syntax highlighter, with the possibility to
highlight syntax errors.
But even without highlighting, I would rather use the normal text
editor component... as it is, if I have to modify it I have to open
the yaml file with vim (I have added a few variables to feed the
VERSION to the qmake command line to my project).

Regards,
Luciano
