1.  [x] Do you edit CIB by hand (as opposed to relying on crm/pcs or
          their UI counterparts)?

Very rare, but sometimes it is the only way.

2.  [x] Do you use "template" based syntactic simplification[1] in CIB?

This is not only simplification, but allows to drastically reduce CIB size.

3.  [ ] Do you use "id-ref" based syntactic simplification[2] in CIB?

3.1 [ ] When positive about 3., would you mind much if "id-refs" got
          unfold/exploded during the "cibadmin --upgrade --force"
          equivalent as a reliability/safety precaution?

4.  [ ] Do you use "tag" based syntactic grouping[3] in CIB?
