Doing better than Apache, but is that saying much?

The internal (inherited) layout of Writer is rubbish. I know :-(

I've been digging at the project to implement something like "reveal codes", as a feature "to kill WordPerfect" - THAT is the feature WP fanatics like me refuse to surrender ... You'd think, with documents now in XML that would be dead simple, as there's a fairly close mapping between reveal-codes and XML. But because of Writer's internal layout, it's an almost total rewrite to get it to work :-(

That said, I believe a lot of the cleanup work going on is going to make this a lot easier :-)

Cheers,
Wol
