Sorting order is very easy to set. I was already thinking about taking a text file with the order of elements, then only forcing orders that are required, like with referenced elements.

That sounds like fun GreenDragon, but I have a feeling our editors will be very different, which is good because while some might like mine, others will like yours. I imagine a small amount of people will use both editors to make use of the strong points in each. I doubt I'll need much help in optimizing but will definitely keep that offer in mind if I get stumped. I'm pretty good at optimizing, it just takes me a few rewrites to get things down to bare minimum.

The whole speed issue with the math in strings was because I was using reflection to build a mini-program in-memory, so every time math was performed it had to compile the mini-program without the benifit of a real compiler. I'll probably rewrite the math evaluation using Regex or string functions, but that's one the things at the bottom of the list.
