I tried to play a little more with dir-locals and I see yet another
limitation: it seems that there's no way to accumulate values across
settings for different directories in the same tree.
For example, I may create a class CLASS in my init file with some
variable settings for it, and put "/usr/local/" in that
class. However, since "/usr/local/src/emacs/emacs.git" has a
.dir-locals.el file, my settings for "/usr/local" won't apply.
Stefan, is there a chance to see my whitespace.el modifications
applied eventually ?
