That is a weird
Sorry, i didn't mean that by 'preserving the identity'. I meant adding some special 'begin' and 'end' tags to allow author to move the item across the document. (Within such tags more info could be stored, e.g. the date a the original author's name). That would be of help to authors when assembling lectures notes or homeworks for students, making the drawing from their and their collegues' previous work easier. I have no idea of the difficulty of such changes. I have heard you developers have made some progress in section folding, so i have thought that technique could be exploited to preserve identity of 'inward' items. thank you - Pol
