How do I implement a specific price editing tool in Aegir? Two solutions here: 1. Hack Aegir to let user see(edit) some specific options 2. Create own interface , which IMHO is best way in Your case as commercial site with prices , shop , catalog etc needs some specific desired style. User shouldn't here make changes to products layout etc. Forcing some special layout formats creating will let help create pdf files with datasheet in a future for example. I am start working on very similiar solution for my company if You want make something usefull which would be also midgard objects class extension please let me know. It will help create such projects in a future.
