AS Studio is just a development environment for creating AS front ends
to other Applications. The only benefit I would see to making a special
"AS" version of Valentina would be that you could create a faceless
background application that would be scriptable just as VAPP is. This
would mean that the user wouldn't see an application launch (except the
AS Studia generated app). Currently, a user would see the AS Studio
generated app launch, then see VAPP launch and all of the UI of VAPP is
uselessly hanging around. By using a faceless background app, there
would be no UI for the user to see - or for the user to mess something
up with.
BTW, this would also mean that VAPP could really be JUST a faceless
background app - the UI for VAPP could be an AS Studio application -
simply an AS front end for the background app.
Of course, all this means that VAPP becomes closer to an AS SDK rather
than an application, but is anyone really using VAPP as a standalone
application except to initially set up tables or do browsing. I'm
guessing that most users of VAPP don't use it as the main interface to
their database.
