- templates: optional and repeatable areas. Below is how you view them when you edit a template. When you edit a document based on such a template, the area title will provide 1 to 2 micro-buttons: [+] to repeat the area, and [x] to remove one occurence of the area. This second button disappears if there is only one occurence and if the area is not optional, of course.

Looks great.
How are identified these areas? With id? With classes?
Looking good with lots of new features.
Any idea when the next binaries will be released?
Would it be possible to use one template that the user can use in Nvu that is designed specifically for writing the page and then when you save it, it replaces the template with a different one?
Here is what I'm thinking... If you use PHP to generate the nav bars on your site, it won't really display to well in Nvu/composer. If your template is just a HTML file that gets copied over and over again it becomes very hard to update the site later on when they want to change a navigation link. By swapping the templates at publish time, you can get the best of both worlds.
I hope I explained that properly.
I'd also be interested to know when another release can be expected. I'm sure many bugs have been worked on since .17.
any reason why it's +/x not +/- ?
