	Designer is very poorly written, and we do not recommend that any developer put much effort into writing new code for it. It needs be completely re-written from scratch.

	Re-writing Designer is a pretty big task and the current version remains usable for the most part. The database scheme is hopefully not likely to change much in the new Designer version. Any User Interfaces developed with the current version, therefore, hopefully will be usable in the new Designer version.
