Hi Lars

Sorry i jumped a bit quick on the blueprint.  But I was just asking
Abyot about that.

Do I take it that this requirement will be met in the improved-forms
blueprint?  I've looked at it and its not entirely clear.  I guess the
dataset-section is a structural thing related to the model, whereas
the improved-forms blueprint describes view oriented things related to
layout.  And I am in favour of keeping these things separate.

But does this mean that the section idea as we currently have it will
be deprecated?  Thats important to know.

Regards
Bob
