[Oliver Walters <oliver.henry.walters@xxxxxxxxx>]

This feature was IN this branch of code but was vetoed. It was WYSIWYG BoM
with export to:

*SV
XML
HTML

Wayne mentioned that KiCad used to have such a BOM export tool but I
haven't been using KiCad long enough to have experienced it.

If there is real need for such a feature then I leave that to the project
leads to decide. I have the code still, and it could be implemented very
easily.

Cheers,
Oliver
