Re: [cdt-patch] Allow editing a Make View tag (core patch)

["Thomas Fletcher" <thomasf@xxxxxxx>]

My thoughts were that this patch could be applied regardless of the
outcome of the build discussion since it is a generic fix which we will want
to have (with the make builder) regardless of the final direction of the
organization of the build discussion.  The other alternative is to just code
in a "delete followed by add" into the MakeView UI, but that wasn't
as clean.
