Masterview devel - Oct 2006 - status - rework for more flexible config of directive metadata

Jeff - I finally tracked down the problem I''ve been stuck on to some
dopey
class var initialization ordering, so the rework I did last week to enable
metadata config options to be set at the app level as well as in directive
directories .metadata defaults, along with internal reorg of parser and
directive loading seems to be working.

Ran all the unit tests, plus did a quick regression test in my simple app
with a couple custom directives, all ok.

But.. I''ve been tearing my hair out for hours about why the tests break
when
I run the entire suite.  Sigh.  One of my tests for the new features is
apparently fiddling the system state s.t. things don''t get reset
properly
and I can''t for the life of me find which one right now.  Tired, giving
up
for now.

Anyway, I think it''s close, I hope this''ll settle so I can get
it committed
tomorrow.

Yeah I know how that goes. Well taking a break from it and coming back
fresh usually lets me see the problem fairly quickly, rather than
being up all night banging my head on the computer, hopefully the same
will be true for  you.

Sounds wonderful!
