You'll have to pardon my naivity, but please help me understand why the current system couldn't be extended in two "simple" directions to allow for what should cover most people's needs: * Model to cover adding features to the list pages, i.e. the main Pages, Snippets and Layouts views, e.g. the existing ReOrder and CopyMove extensions. * Model to cover adding features to the editor pages, i.e. editing pages, snippets and layouts. Maybe let it select which internal function to allow the enhancement to show on. Then in a subsequent itteration DRY it up. IMHO (not having read the source code so I could be complete off-base) this could be done over the course of three public beta releases: * 0.6.7-unstable gets the lists model, * 0.6.8-unstable gets the editor model, * 0.6.9-unstable gets some cleanup, and after further testing & fixing (and time for the extensions to be updated) it is launched as 0.7.0-stable.
