in reply to Code Tags
For the "d/l code" option, however, any extraneous stuff in <code> tags without providing for it (ie, use "__END__" on the real code to ease things) is a real problem.
Personally, I find that both serif fonts and proportional fonts make it unappealing to my eyes to read the text. Of course, "Courier New," as a fixed serif font, is rather ugly on the eyes, especially when small. So, I ditch Courier in favour of Andale Mono or Lucida Typewriter for fixed fonts, and Lucida Sans for proportional fonts. Much easier to read.
Closer to the subject at hand, I feel that editing nodes that use the code tags in violation of their spirit is justified, though I would hope that the person doing the editing is the author.
