Add the Generator element in feeds through the {rss2|atom|rdf|rss}_head hook

[gnot]

The generator metatag is added to the HTML pages through the wp_head() hook.

I think it would be more useful to do the same in the feeds. The generator element could be added through the {rss2|atom|rdf|rss}_head hook.

This way it would be easier for plugin authors to totally remove the generator tags for security reasons or make modifications to the generator string.

I agree. Let's see the patch!

If you guys 'n' gals expect this patch from me, you may check this ticket again after a few months, since this requires knowledge I do not currently have :)

filtering on the_generator gets the job done already: It contains the context.

Sounds like a good idea to me.

The ticket isnt just about being able to remove it easily, Its about cleaner code.

It would however need a helper function, since its impossible to pass params via add_action (ie. add_action('rss_head', 'the_generator("rss")');)

Move the generator output to *_head actions for feeds

[sivel]

Move the generator output to *_head actions for feeds, opml and app. Add opml_head action.

This looks great.

I really like the way you use current_filter to determine the context for the actions :-)

Hadn't thought of doing it that way.
