Hi everyone! I'm currently working on a new replicator add-on for the Fauxton UI. One of the features I'd like to implement is a bookmark manager where a user can create and save bookmarks in order to have them for quick access, when selecting hosts/databases during replication. This saves the user the hastle to remember the full URL to any source/target database he/she want's to replicate from.
I had a discussion lately with Robert Kowalski where to store those bookmarks and I had a couple of ideas in mind: a) Saving the bookmarks on the local storage of the browser => this is the least desired option, since the bookmarks would only be available on the current browser. b) Saving the bookmarks in the users document in the _user Database => Not really nice, since we would pollute the user object with data from Fauxton. I guess it's not supposed to work that way. c) Having a fauxton related system database (e.g. _fauxton) where we can store UI related data. For now this would be bookmarks, but could come in handy for other purposes like UI settings and that a like. I wanted to ask, if it would be possible (and desireable) to add such a system database for the Fauxton project. Kind Regards, Markus
