[Laszlo-dev] How should auto includes be kept up to date?

[P T Withington]

Anyone have any thoughts on this?

Should I make the build system automatically rebuild the autoincludes  
file so that any tag defined in components will auto-include itself?

pro:  you won't have to remember to do this by hand
con:  you may make a type-oh and get an auto-include rather than an  
error
