I reall like the new invert branch feature, but I have issues with the

* "invert inset" does not mean anything to me. "Inverted branch inset"
would be better IMO, but still not perfect.
No, it's hard to know what is perfect, though.
Also the changing "(des)activate branch" could be a single "Active
Branch" with on/off status.
Yes, I agree.
* "invert inset" and "activate branch" do not belong together, since
one is for the whole branch and the other is for only one inset (I
understand this is the reason for the name above). Some separators
should be changed.
Yes.
* I do not like much the new unicode characters used for inverted
insets, since they do not convey anything. I would instead keep the
old ones, but make them give the state of the particular inset (active
or not).
This was highly experiemental, and more or less guesswork. I'd be happy
to go this way, but it seems as if it could be confusing to have two
branches, side by side, perhaps, with the same label, but different
statuses.
Guillaume suggested using something like: ✔¬BranchName, where the "¬"
indicates that the inset is inverted. (If anyone doesn't know, that's
one standard logical symbol for negation.)
I would say that ✔ should stand for "this particular inset is active".
Instead of ¬, which is not universally understood (my first idea was !,
which is not better), what about striking out the branch name?
