I also miss how to add a KWAnchor to the original text flow when I notice my 
table will not fit, and needs an additional page. (Well, an extra anchor in a 
new frame of the hosting textframeset)
I assume I can just store the last parag (provided via the createAnchors() method)
and in some way I don't see at the moment I can insert a paragraph after this 
last parag to contain the new cells on the next page.
Ideas ?

Well, any requests to the KWAnchor seems to just call my internal methods, so no
double houskeeping, luckily :)

Undo/redo is for later, the things that I start facing now are horrible enough :))
ps. we do support embedded objects in other framesets then frameset 0, right?

Just one more thing; 

is it a bug or a feature that the KWAnchor::move(int x, int y) uses integers and 
not doubles...

KWAnchor::size() for example also returns integer values, but that is a zoomed 
value, so that seems logical.

The only thing worse than failure is the fear of trying something new
