*"It makes sense to keep all the data relative to a particular bodypart transfer in one file, rather than having to track down some other file that may or may not exist or may have had it's name changed or whatever."

*You're thinking bigger than I am, as usual.  Such a change has implications for all of the read, write, and merge functions, requiring more conditional code for each.  It has implications for the automated path handling, because we'll be putting more than one body part in a given folder.  I'll need to think about that a lot before I can consider changing such things.  Whereas keeping the file format and path structure the same really just means I need to look more at adding multi-actor looping to the comparison and morph-loading processes.  Changing the file format introduces some changes which will have effects all over the script.  If you really like the idea of merging the file formats, perhaps we should be discussing the datafile path handling and things like that.  As long as we're thinking in terms of making things accessible to the average user, how can the filepath handling be improved?  We'll still need all the same data available to read/write, and I assume the average user would prefer to have reading and writing automated for most cases.  If our standard of valuation is now accessibility (rather than "sparseness" or whatever), maybe we should be re-considering several things from that perspective.

So I hesitate to just jump in and start making such big changes.  Particularly since my changes tend to make things more complex and less accessible, unless I have a clean Master Plan outlined for me....

Hmm.
