I don't understand you here. There is nothing related with an update for the
file format.
Exactly, so there is wery little reason to _not_ go away from the
current "all lines on" default.
The question here, as far I understand, it is one about templates. When you
insert a table, it appears a table that follows a given template.
The problem is even more general than simply about tables, when I inset a
figure float I would like to have immediately a figure float with an empty
figure centered and the cursor in caption.
Until now all options are hardwired, the idea is to allow a selection, the
possibility to set a default.
A template is the best of all - if it ever happens. If I remember
correctly,
there already is a patch for hardwired "no-line" tables, which is
much better than the current "all-lines" tables. So why not apply it
immediately? It is a definitive improvement. Now, if a nice system
with templates for tables and other stuff is made, then that is
even better. No reason to not apply the "no-lines" patch right away,
for those templates won't happen in a long while unless
someone has started working on them. If such templates happens
before 1.5.0 - nice! If not, it'd be nice to _at least_ have the
"no-lines" tables instead of "all-lines".
This change will only after future documents, the existing tables will not
change not matter what we decide.
I know.
Or did I misunderstood what you said?
I think we agree about this, it is Lars that seems to hold back.
