Ah ok - I didn't follow any of threads on the new GUI - was busy getting 
the current to work properly :-)

I often use PHP nowadays (web applications etc) - would there some Perl 
regexp method in Qt which could do those two in one step (as preg_replace() 
in PHP does) ?

I personally would prefer something which accepts the DTD as-is (as it has 
been published etc) without weird screen artefact for end users...

If that patch would get in, I wouldn't mind having a look at either two of 
the above..
