Hey,

since SVN r2775, snippets can also be used to insert variable content like the template wildcards {year}, {date} and {datetime}.

So, basically the "Insert Date" code in the Edit menu is more or less not necessary anymore as it can be emulated with snippets like: [Default] date={date} datetime={datetime}

So, I'm thinking of dropping the whole code for the "Insert Date" menu items.

Pros: - lots of code can be removed - avoid duplicate functionality in the core - less bloated Edit and Editor popup menu

Cons: - a little less flexibility for the date/time format - (more?)

Alternatively, we could move the "Insert Date" code into an internal or external plugin.

Any ideas, opinions, objections?

Regards, Enrico
