Hello Hans,
Since there is no more need, to keep compatibility with MKII (there are already a lot of differences), I suggest - for the benefit of beginners - to change at least 2 things:
- let \framed or \externalfigure behave like \parbox and \includegraphics in LaTeX, i.e. no more need to put \dontleavehmode before the command (the current behaviour is just not very intuitive...)
I have no very strong feelings about this one, but note that such a change would mean a small loss of functionality. (staying in vmode is not the same as \indent ...\par)
- let align=left|right behave correctly
Switching the meaning of keywords that have existed for more than a decade does not seem wise to me. If something has to be done, then I would prefer scratching those two works altogether. But practically, we already have align=flushleft|flushright and the manuals should document these instead of bare left|right. Best wishes, Taco
