Hi again,

Just to answer my own question. I think I come up with a clever idea on 
showing various fields depending on dc:type. I put all the fields into a 
single step workflow (since I only have about 15 unique properties) and 
I will show/hide fields depending on what user selects on the first 
field of the form which is dc:type.

First the user selects 'Book', so I show from Javascript 'title', 
'ISBN'. If changes to Contact - I hide those and show name and email etc.
