           Summary: User documentation creates bloat in workflows
           Product: Kepler
           Version: 1.x dev
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: actors

Currently, the user documentation is copied into every actor instance as the
actor is drug to the canvas.  The problem that this is addressing is that
people need to be able to customize the documentation for actors that they have
customized on the canvas.  The problem with this approach is that it creates
unnecessary duplicate documentation in every actor instance.  One solution
would be to diff the documentation against the original and just store what is
different in the actor instance.
