| We have two possibilities:
|
| 1) (what you want): Declare that it was never intended to swallow the space.
| Then the current behaviour is buggy. We are going to fix it and tell users
| "Sorry, but we fixed a bug that might change the output of your documents
| if you use comments".
We never intended so swallow the space, so...
| 2) (what I think is correct): Realize that the current behaviour is a
| mistake, but acknowledge that it is like that and implement the new
| behaviour with a file format change and lyx2lyx support. Then the existing
| documents will continue to produce the same output. This is IMO right,
| since I would be very upset if an upgrade from 1.4.2 to 1.4.3 would
| rearrange the output of e.g. a carefully crafted book.
How would you change the .lyx format?
