I love the idea, but looking at the code I realize even with my experience about what's going on in the engine I have hard time understanding what's going on there, and we're not talking about some obscure nook of the engine - parser is right in the middle of everything. So I personally adding so much complexity is not worth the cost. If we can find a solution to do the same (or roughly the same, sacrificing some less important features) without adding so much complexity it'd be much better I think. Maybe if you made a good narrative explanation what's going on in that code and it turned out it's not as bad as it looks and we just didn't realize it, it would be more acceptable. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Software Architect SugarCRM: http://www.sugarcrm.com/ (408)454-6900 ext. 227
