Reminding people (including devs) to "be careful" isn't enough. It's not about being careful. It's about not needlessly cutting/pasting nodes. Devs must not cut/paste nodes if they intend to issue a PR that changes those nodes. Devs should never falsely claim to be the creator of a node. Got it? No I don't. Say you (Edward, I imagine) move a subtree that contains Terry's nodes to the Attic. If you forget and just do a cut-and-paste, suddenly they become your nodes. Or maybe just the head of the subtree becomes your node, I don't even know. Furthermore, I have been developing plugins and enhancing Leo internals for some time and I have *never* once thought that by creating a node I was claiming to be its creator. Or that by moving a node by cut-and-paste I was changing its creator. Why would I, and how would I have known about that subtlety? After all, node ids are ordinarily invisible to the creator and user. Let's just make the normal behavior agree with normal expectations. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
