So if in the LDRAWDIR is a file called parts.xml the user is asked: Do you like to proceed with your current settings from parts.xml or define your own settings?.
Something in that way.
If parts.xml is the source, then i only have to build the searchword database and lets go.
Going this way you can choose the layout of the parts.xml just like you want to have it. I can read it.
Just my thought for now.
OK I think it makes sense to keep as much the same as possible, but definitely prefer separating the keywords in the .xml file (IMHO Steffen was right). So I'll drop the keywords attribute and use <keyword> sub tags, perhaps inside <keywords> tags.
