Auto updating links & linked snippets [message #555995]

Two Feature questions. These may exist in the Web Tools Project and I just haven't found them yet.

1) Is there a way to auto update links when you move files?

Problem: A css file containing relative links to background images gets moved into a newly created styles folder, now the image links are broken and need to be hand edited. This isn't such a big deal on a small site but would be nice to have on a large site.

2) Is there a way to link a snippet to files so that changes to the external linked snippet will automatically be reflected in each of it's file instances?

Problem: Navigation, banners, footer copyright info, boiler plate code or features that appear on every page all seem to need updating at various points in time. Is there a way other than cut and paste on every page or find and replace to achieve this? In DreamWeaver this would be the Assets Library.

Thanks,
Cleo
