Hi Bernhard,

I like your ideas very much. I have already mailed Fabien last week
after I read 1.2 roadmap and the ambition to improve the generator
(although I haven't received an answer yet).

I am working on the sfExtjsThemePlugin for a while now, and in this
plugin I have also exended/improved the generator somewhat. Besides
the sfExtjsThemePlugin there are also already some other plugins in
the repository which extend the capabilities of the current generator.

Although the sfExtjsThemePlugin adds the generation of ExtJS code to
the generator (with the help of the sfExtjs2Plugin) It also improves
the generator, by allowing to  define foreign-fields, directly from
the generator and on which you can also automatically sort on. So no
more need for partials and extended actions-classes for that. Of
course there are many other improvements, like tab-pages for edit-
pages to name one.

the syntax to () define foreign fields (for example in an overview of
cities, with a foreignkey to countries) is:

list:
  display: [name, country_id/name]  # to display city-name, country-
name

My implementation is currently based on Propel since this was the
default ORM in SF1.0 and maybe it would be nice if we can support both
Propel and Doctrine (although this would probably require some more
work, unless the propel and doctrine interfaces are (going?) to be
similar), but I would like to help implementing these functions (after
discussion of course) for the new admin generator (without
dependencies to ExtJS)  so it can be reused in more plugins.

For more info about the sfExtjsThemeGenerator take a look at the wiki
(although it is currently being (re)written)
http://trac.symfony-project.org/wiki/sfExtjsThemePlugin

And for a demo take a look at: http://tejohnston.dynora.eu/
(admin:admin) although currently under heavy development.
