My sense is that ArchivesSpace is so tied to EAD as a data model that a change 
to one couldn't happen without a change to the other. Right now it seems to me 
like the best solution for this would be to write a plugin that looks for 
either a user-defined text field with the content warning in it, or a general 
note with a specific label indicating a content warning, and displays it as an 
alert in the PUI.

I'd be curious to hear others' thoughts about this. It's definitely something 
we would use here.  -k

Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Warnings for collection content in 
ArchivesSpace


Has anyone suggested a note for ArchivesSpace that would contain content or 
trigger warnings for the collection being described? The General note would 
tend to get lost among the other notes and both the Abstract and Scope and 
Content Notes do not seem to be quite right either. It would also be important 
that the note be at the beginning of the ArchivesSpace finding aid so a 
researcher could see it immediately rather than come further in the description 
(which they might not read).
