Thank you for that information.  I would like to make SciTE the
recommended working environment for all users of a scientific project
I'm developing, which makes heavy use of XML.  Folding, along with the
ease of use and adding items into the menus, make it the best choice
I've seen so far.  However, arguably the most important tag to fold in
the XML language we work with is called "input".  I can't change that.
Would it be possible to at least make an option to disable the HTML
folding exceptions for XML in a future SciTE release?  I took a quick
look at LexHTML.cxx, but I don't know enough to fix this. Simply taking "input" out of "tagDontFold" is obviously not a good long-term solution to this problem. (Although it would work fine for me, and I may do it as a stopgap measure.)

I'm also still concerned about the "fold.on.open" option. Since we tend to drill down through our XML files, it would also be very useful to have every single fold closed on opening a file. It seems that the "fold.on.open" option should do this, but it seems to just fold the top level fold and leave the rest open inside it. Is this the expected behavior, or is it unique to my installation?
