------------------------


   "sdmadm mc" opens the plain source code of the xml file in the editor. If editor
   is closed the client parses and validates the file, but it does not send the
   java object to the CS, it sends the plain text of the xml file.

   No formatting of the xml output would be necessary.
   User can write comments into the configuration without loosing them.
