Feature Request

The Snippets feature in Content Reuse only lets me maintain snippets that were used as is. After they are converted to text, any link disappears. Based on the new Duplicate Content Detection feature, I would like a mechanism to find snippets that were converted to text in order to maintain them just like I would regular snippets. For example, updates made to a stored snippet often also apply to snippets that were converted to text because of small change etc.

It would be nice if snippets weren't a forced paragraph block element, and could thus be used inline.

Snippets are treated like individual code blocks and cannot be combined with regular text. But I've already had a number of experiences where I wish this behavior was possible. For example, I would like the text before a colon (which never changes) in a snippet, and then seamlessly complete the sentence after the colon with regular text (which changes). All without having to convert the snippet to text so that I can still benefit from automatic snippet updates.

For templates, you show "Last updated by", but for audit purposes, this info should be available for all content reuse items. Also, "Created by" should be listed for all content reuse items.

We want to be able to add comments to text inside snippets just like with normal text. We use comments to communicate with QA as content passes through the workflow. Not being able to comment on snippets is a real blocker - we cannot ask questions to QA, and QA in turn cannot alert us to content issues.

Please release a revision history feature for snippets in the same way that documents have a revision history. I have been asked multiple times lately for information that was in an older version of a document, unfortunately our SOPs are created with nothing but snippets, so I have no way to find out what the old data was at this point.

For the global find/replace feature, add the ability to replace static text with variables/snippets. This seems like a fairly common use case. I have a term that appears hundreds of times in my docs, which is currently static text. I want to create a snippet for it, and then replace all instances of the static text with the snippet.

Enable table rows saved as snippets to be appended to existing tables. Tables/rows can currently be used as snippets, but when adding them to an article, you cannot incorporate the snippet as a row in an existing table. Enabling this functionality would make table row snippets more flexible, as users could build tables using multiple snippets and reuse rows across tables.

We use snippets for small sets of instructions that are included throughout our documentation. I'd like to be able to include variables such as buttons and field labels within the snippets.

I'd like to be able to organize snippets in folders.
