Mmm.. change the docs then ;-)
- The display menu is not specific to Archetypes or any particular
content type implementation. We shouldn't tie this to AT (or any
other content type framework).
Who is talking about that? An end user has no notion of AT whatsoever!
He sees a settings tab in the edit form and there is where this option
needs to be. (Just like wf-transitions need to be part of the form and
they aren't related to AT either). Right now I see the display setting
of certain folders change almost on a daily basis becuase people think
they can use it to fit there current, temporary needs. And I can't
blame them. That thing is wrong there.
There are a lot more attributes/properties on AT objects that control
settings. Why not add the Display value as well to the object? You
give it the settings schemata value and you are done. You only have to
change the lookup code (with a fall back to the old location where
origionally the display value was stored if it is there while the
field is still None so you don't need any migration). Just be
creative ;-)
