QGIS is using different code for vector editing. Target of new v.digit &
v.edit is to get rid of dependancy on X-driver, rather then add new
features (in first step). As side effect, GRASS will get new tool for
non-interactive vector editing (v.edit). This could enable us, use GRASS
as background tool for web-based applications.
