Now *thats* an idea! What if an Ada-oriented editor were to flag dotted
names such that they could be made visible or not? You have to type them
in initially (solves the problem of having to parse files that may not
be complete yet) but you can toggle them on/off and see which way makes
the code more clear. I'll have to cogitate on that one for a while.....

Maybe some of the tool-writers are listening? :-)
