Description _ jrichard 2002-01-19 01:13:37 UTC 
When I edit something via the XML tree editor, nodes that were like this:
   <button name="My Button Name" />
turn into:
   <button name="My Button Name"></button>

While this is technically correct, it really irritates the people
who use simple editors (vi, wordpad) to edit XML since it makes the
whole thing more wordy.

It would be nice if the <button></button> case could be collapsed
into <button/> by the tree editor.

XML tree editor is not part of NetBeans since 3.5 version. No plans to bring it
back.
