Comment (by knarf):

 I also don't quite understand what Formaline should do here. Formaline
 deals with the source code, and it generally does it's job. Simfactory
 deals with build options, submission scripts ect, and it does so too.

 The option list can usually be found in name/SIMFACTORY/cfg/OPTIONLIST,
 and the other scripts are in run/, or expanded versions in individual
 restarts, properties.ini is saved as well. As long as users don't delete
 this, I don't really see a reason why we should duplicate it.

 On more general teams, I see Simfactory 'above' Formaline in terms of
 layers. If anything, Simfactory might know about Formaline's special
 output and post-process it if wanted, not the other way around.
