We use more than one type of software to generate the .GPX file(like AirProNav, Sar Pro Air, EWAC, PMA, etc), each with its way of generating the <identifier> and <comment> fields. This is a mess. To fix the problem of communication between the software, the automatic renaming of the <identifier> and <comment> fields would solve all problems.

Wouldn't it be easier then if I added a button or switch to do automatic renaming of <identifier> and <comment>?
So with one click all <identifiers> become WPTxx and all <comment> are deleted?

There is no restricting on editing, but when saving the .fpl file it's automatically converted to UPPERcase without spaces:

Code:
  <route>
       <route-name>NEUEPOSITIONSLISTE1</route-name>
