Small thingie: I think it would be very convenient if after entering all 
the parameters in the snippet, the tab key would place the cursor at the 
end of the snippet.

Example:

ahref\thttp://somewhere.com/\tsomewhere\t results in

<a href="http://somewhere.com/">somewhere</a>CURSOR instead of
<a href="http://somewhere.com/">somewhere      CURSOR</a>

:)

BTW: I'm starting to enjoy this editor very much...! :)

I agree, although this is possible of course in the current version 
like this:
<img src="$1" />$2

Or similar. I believe $0 can also be used for that purpose, regardless 
of the number of tab stops. I sort of think that this should not be 
neccesary and it should always end up after the snippet body no matter 
what... I can't imagine any situation where you _don't_ want that.. ?

Well, I needed it for a snippet I created for latex to make begin/end
constructions such as:

\begin{itemize}
\end{itemize}

Here you want the cursor to end up on a blank line between the two lines
of the snippet. Note a really nice TM feature here. If you specify the
same placeholder twice ($1 below) then it is filled out simultaneously
when using the snippet (this is a documented feature). Really cool ;-)

\\begin{$1}
$0
\\end{$1}

Since it might be a bit annoying to always having to define $0 for
snippets simply needing the cursor at the end of the snippet this could
simply be interpreted as the default if no $0 placeholder is specified.

Better than that, when the cursor is a "$1" let me click on the image 
name in the project drawer and have it insert the source/path 
automatically!

Addittionaly, It would be cool to be able o select an image in the 
project drawer an be able to preview it in the main window (ala skEdit) 
rather than get garbled ASII
