Yep; crunching the whitespace makes it faster to parse, but much harder to edit. > My 2 questions: > Is there a tool to handle services.rdb, beside pure xml text edition? I use xmllint --format (from libxml2) to read it. We could of course do some small XSLT-ness to have a newlines for each <component> - that might make it easier to trivially remove components. Adding new components is even easier - just drop a file in program/services/ - and it will be parsed & incorporated on next start. > How easy it is to have the extension manager GUI as a installable > module, or bundled optional extension?

You want to get rid of the extension manager GUI ? or you want a separate, stand-alone "extension manager" GUI ? :-) or you want to make it easier to edit the services.rdb ? Ultimately the services.rdb doesn't have to be crunched like that it can be verbose and more human editable if you like that, but prolly worth avoiding that for the default install.
