Hi,

Globally I like it.


Great :-)

I forgot about that, I'll add them.

They might be merged with the "link to web page", I'll try some options.

{table} , {image} , {attach} , {toc} : all of them are macros :-) I put it
there because I feel it has a special importance and is used more often than
other macros, but it would fit nicely under the macros menu as well.

I'd say 1 macro per category and the ability to add an additional level of
depth if our macro headcount grows too far. Howeverthis might not be a good
idea (too many drop-down menus isn't good) so I'll try designing a dialog
box for macro selection.

You can see them in the feature mindmap right above on the page.

Look at the image more closely : it shows up as an attachment in the search
results list and you can create a link by clicking on the button.

I'd say by everyone and provide the author column to let the user filter by
himself only if he wants to.

Right, I'll fix that.

Right. I'll add both.

You cannot set it when creating the link but when editing it through the
tray (as it is not an important feature). I don't think it matters much and
could be removed altogether.
