An idea for future GEF versions perhaps?

Just another GEF "viewer" would be more correct. What you mention can
certainly be done. But what's your motivation for doing this?

It`just an idea i had while working on my customizer.
My editor is very generic in that it can load different palettes from a =

file.
(the palette is driven by a rdf schema, in the editor you create rdf fil=

according to the schema)
The palette and thus the schema should be completely customizable, i.e. =

you can create a new palette from scratch. But by editing the palette yo=

just edit the rdf schema which is also an rdf file just as the diagram.

that`s how i came upon that idea when brainstorming for possible future=

development of the editor.

I won`t be implmenting it though. my own editor is hardly finished...
