this is a bug in the YUI JS editor. It really needs a re-think of how to manage
the toggle between raw and gui editor. I'll try and get to that sometime soon.

this might be due to the order in which click things. If you can give me a
reproducible example I'd really appreciate it.

The project is actively developed, though I am no longer employed at the
university where it is used. I know of some other Catalyst folks who have
expressed interest though, and I am continuing to support it.

This seems like a good idea for a Catalyst project, maybe similar to CX::CMS,
but not really part of the vision for this particular application. A photo
manager app could follow the same pattern that the CX::CMS does (base
Controller, base Action, base Model and View), though maybe not need to store
the images themselves in svn, only the metadata.
CX::CMS and CX::ImageManager (fictitious name) could co-exist very nicely, but I
don't see trying to overreach with the feature set that CMS supports.
