Re: [SourceJammer-devel] Another RFE/refinement suggestion

[Robert M. <rob...@ya...>]

You're suggesting that labels be applied to files instead of files being applied to labels? Would
we still have a shortcut to let you apply the label to all the files in a particular folder?

This is a pretty major change. I can definitely see that building complex labels is nearly
impossible with the current architecture. But I wonder if there might be a less radical change we
could make to make this work. I don't really know, though. 

And how would this new architecture work with the "rebuild" label concept?
