[Xerte-dev] Re: Design new editor

I like this idea.

On the Optional parameters, I am not sure why you want t hide them. Most 
of the comments that we got really liked the fact that you could 
immediatley see what the optional parameters are. And, if you happen to 
have a smaller screen you can auto-colapse the panel. Just my 2 cents...
