Hi Beowulf...

One thing I find myself trying to do often is to try and turn one of those broken-up articles into a single document Example would be a news story or review or documentation where they have a bunch of "Next" buttons at the end of each section that takes you to the next hunk of the content. They do that to force you to read ads :-). Anyway...what I was wondering if the editor could become saavy in that area.

The idea would be that you could highlight a section of text, and choose Open Editor, and it would be pasted in. Then you'd go back to the web article, click the "Next" link to take you to the next piece of the article, highlight that section of text, choose Open Editor again, and it'd be pasted beneath the first text in the editor, etc. That way a person could build up the entire article in one piece for export to an ebook!
