Yes.

You're right. I thought that the 'a' version was the version most likely to
be used, but now, looking at tiles and 1x1 round bricks, I noticed that my
theory fell.

Oh no, so the 7930 door also exists in a without-glass version? I was
happily unaware of that. Anyway, I strongly doubt that the *glass* exists
without door (except from after accidents), therefor the glass is NOT a
separate part and the glassed door is NOT an assembly! The unglassed door
(if it exists?) is a sad variant and definitely not the standard form. I
have seven pcs of 7930 doors, all with glasses.
If you could move the glass realtive to its frame, it would have been
different and we would need the glass as a separate part, but now it's glued
and become a part of the one part.
There is the Door 1 x 3 x 4 and appearantly there is also a variant that
should be called Door 1 x 3 x 4 without Glass - even if I've never seen one.

I'd like to hear when and why Steve and Chris are going to use that x268.dat
separated from its context and put into a new!

Me too, that's why I don't like the way they are treated in the LDraw library.
