questions I have to the users of LDDP.

As a programmer that has used LDDP only a few times, here are my opinions, for
what they are worth:

- Search paths
I've added the ability to add custom search paths but currently the LDraw Base
paths and the model's directory will always come first in search precedence.  Is
this undesirable?

I would prefer to see this fully configurable. Let the user choose where in the
search path LDRAW is included. But the default should be first, I think.

- Program loading
Willy has suggested that the initial blank document that appears when LDDP opens
should contain the default LDraw part header.  I feel differently since the
header is easily added and LDDP is not just a part editor.  Since there's a
difference of opinion, I ask the other LDDP users what they think.

Well, I have only used it for parts, so I can see the usefulness - maybe this
could be a configurable option as well? Or even an "add LDraw part header"
button on a menu somewhere?

-Model Tree View
Was the old functionality of use?  I'm thinking of morphing this feature into
something completely different but I'll save the old way if this feature was
used often by someone.

I didn't use it...
