Vincent Massol commented on DOXIA-165:
--------------------------------------

Clarification of the need for this:

{quote}
[2:53p] vmassol: the problem if you don't have macros in the sink is that you loose the structure
[2:53p] vmassol: so your sink is not a listener anymore
[2:53p] vmassol: but a renderer only
[2:53p] vmassol: and you can't use it for making transformations
[2:54p] vmassol: I think there's an important difference between a listener and a renderer
[2:54p] vmassol: maybe doxia is only meant to be a renderer
[2:54p] vmassol: wikimodel is meant to be more general and to be a listener and a renderer
[2:55p] vmassol: and the api I'm building inside xwiki also supports both right now
[2:55p] vmassol: said differently
[2:55p] vmassol: what I'd like is the ability to reconstruct the source
[2:55p] vmassol: when you do:
[2:55p] vmassol: source --> parsing --> sink --> source
[2:56p] vmassol: if you evaluate macros you loose this
[2:56p] vmassol: (I mean evaluate before the sink)
