Are there plans to include a command-line utility that can generate the final javascript files from the designer/<project> directory? Our build system checks out the entire source tree from SVN before building it, so I had to add the generated javascript files to source control so they'd be included in the build - and it's not a best practice to add generated files to source control.

With a command-line tool, I could add the javascript generation to the build process itself - just like I plan to do with the SDK tools (once I have a chance to learn them better)

The code generation will probably not be abstracted into a command line tool as Sencha Designer 2 constantly has a working directory that always has the necessary parts for it to run.

A deployment tool to wrap up the app into a deployable state may occur down the line.

A command line deploy tool would be very helpful to automate a multi-step build process where Designer is just one part.
