Varlog:

Hey, as long as you're happy to answer all the questions from all the users that have issues due to it, great. I don't mean to sound snippy, but the truth is, a huge percentage of the posts on the Sigil forum are about "bugs" (hmph) that happen because John Doe thinks it's a word-processor and TREATS it as such. Sigil isn't now, and never WAS, intended to run like that. Even when Valloric first introduced it, it was never supposed to be a replacement for Word or OO or whatever-your-flavor-is. I suspect it never will be. What are we at now, in terms of lines of code? AT 7, it was what, a million lines? Do we really think that the guys will add the other 5 million lines of code that are needed to make it actually work LIKE a Word processor?

I don't understand why "preview" isn't good enough. I don't care about taking the option away from you, as long as the rest of us (who don't use it) don't have to reply to all the questions caused thereby. And, to be clear, that we aren't expected to support further enhancements in that (the word-processing/WYSIWYG) area, over productivity enhancements.
