Union is the concept that is implemented and works. The disadvantage of it was its limited functionality as Tim mentioned at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xml-cocoon-users&m=108856708816565&w=4.
Its successor was only a concept and I would wonder if it will be implemented if there is already a better concept. But you know how long it takes to come from a concept to an implementation in an open source project. I would not fear having to rewrite union code later on, there will again be a migration path.

The status of this page and what it describes is unclear - it refers to 'Woody' and wd:, wt: prefixes... Has this functionality been included in the production version of Cocoon (2.1.5), or do we need to access it some other way?
Somewhere is written that it is available since 2.1.4 - and so it has gone into CForms too as the branching happened afterwards. Unfortunately it is not documented in the official forms docu until, that's why I posted Tim's original proposal and the hint on the Form model GUI sample.
There is only one issue with the union widget: Its adding added the "early validation problem" to actions (you might remember), when Sylvain fixed that he broke the union in that way that the dependent widgets lost their values on switching the union widget. This issue was fixed yesterday. It did not prevent the widgets from working, but old values or default values (my came from binding) were lost.
