Been using IP.C a lot over the last few days - and I've thought of something that would make things easier for editing large amounts of pages:
A way to 'export' pages into the file system (maybe even if only available IN_DEV) that will place your pages as a file in a folder (/ccs_pages, maybe) under a user-defined name that will allow you to edit the page externally through your FTP editor and see the changes straight on the page. Also then, a function to allow you to re-import them back into the database.
I dunno..... just thinking out loud, something that would make my life a lot easier, anyway.

I'm for this, but I'd rather have it implemented using WebDAV.
No need to export anything.

IP.Content heavily ties into the IPB template system, and we have tentative plans to explore something like that in the IPB template system in an upcoming version.

WebDAV would be brilliant to get working with IP.Content. It would allow me to get away from the built-in editors and use Coda.

Absolutely! WebDav would a HECK of a lot better for working with templating of all sorts, but esp for CCS.

Yes, please. This would be pretty awesome.
Real programmers don't document. If it was hard to write, it should be hard to understand.
