My issue isn't that programmatic submission needed to be easier, but rather the API for acting on the creation, etc. of nodes. Just got less consistent and harder to use.
Fair enough. Someone else had just commented that programmatic submission was hard, or complex, and made worse by the patch.
As of this patch, hook_nodapi no longer gets called, for example, with $op='update".
Well... Yes. That was what the patch did. It changed the system to use form processing hooks for CRUD interaction. It can definitely be said that there should be an easier way to 'tie in' to those operations. A specific helper function rather than form_alter, for example. --Jeff
