Filters are _not_ meant to be in core since they are hardly a generic solution for a class of problem. They are entry points for user-level hacking. Generic patches should operate at the parse tree level, not using regexps. Eric's filter, like any other filter, has flaws that cannot be fixed. Useful filters ought to be published in Worg, not included in core. Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou
