[oXygen-user] Useful Feature?: Don't Use Author if No Associated CSS

[George Cristian Bina]

Hi Eliot,

You should not need to specify the default mode for the XML editors as 
the Author mode in version 11. oXygen 11 added support to specify the 
default mode/page also in the framework/document type. For all the 
frameworks that we support DITA, DocBook, TEI, etc. we already set that 
to Author. Thus you can keep the default mode for the XML editors to 
Text and unknown files will be opened in Text mode while the DITA, etc. 
files will be opened in Author mode.

Please let me know if you still think that an additional option is needed.

Best Regards,
George
