Gus Heck updated SOLR-13133:
----------------------------
    Description: 
In a recent discussion I was yearning for a better overview of the fields, 
dynamic fields and types available. To that end and with probably little or no 
will/ability to actually implement it in the Admin UI I did however spend a few 
minutes drawing out what I think might be better than what we have now. This 
issue is to record the idea and maybe inspire someone. There is a small chance 
I'll decide I want to learn more about Angular and give a crack at it, but 
anyone who likes it or thinks they have something even better is free to run 
with it.

The basic idea is that our current UI hides the fields/types in a dropdown 
where they are impossible to see, and leaves acres of wasted space below. This 
design endeavors to make use of that space. Also a couple details are repeated 
such as the field type. The above image shows just 2 fields (_text_ and id) 
with _text_ selected. Obviously the list would be much longer and also have a 
section for types (hopefully with a nice pretty divider). The other key feature 
here is an "at a glance" flag specifier (intended to represent the schema 
values only, details of schema/props/index would be in the detail view to the 
right as they are now) Flags that are capitalized are on and flags that are 
lowercase are off. The sections correspond to the sections in the create field 
dialog in the UI, with an additional -t- between the first two to represent 
Tokenized or not.
