Can you give the Subversion URL for that branch? It was not obvious to
me when I tried to find it last night.
That code also contains the various improvements I announced a month or two ago about faster splitter performance and doing >6000 regions/pass.
Would it be possible to add some user-configureable pre-processing in
splitter for omitting certain objects or moving nodes around, like my
Perl script (posted earlier in this thread) does? Well, I guess it is
always possible by patching the source, but I would prefer something
plugin- or filter-like that allows me to run unmodified binaries.
Nope. No plugins with the splitter with that functionality. You'll have to edit the code. However, part of my changes include a refactor that make it feasible to put in a small 'shim', where you can get entities before they're processed, where such a module may be cleanly added.
