SubType questions
November 27, 2009, 05:54:40 am
I notice that when viewing the subtype option list, the core types cannot be disabled through the interface (in my case, I rarely use household types and would benefit from being able to completely shut it off). Is that because of concern people may shut a type down not fully realizing it's impact, or because shutting the core types off will break things in the system?

Couple other small items:
The action links seem to be missing css styling (see attached) -- this is visible in other option group lists as well.
When using the config checklist to setup a new install, after selecting the subtype choice there's no way to return to the checklist after making modifications. Sidenote -- I think the config checklist should have the "enable components" option, and it should be first on the list. That's really the most top-level config that should be part of a site setup.

Also, I notice the type icon appears in the "create new" sidebar dropdown. Personally, I don't think icons should appear there at all, since no other core options in that list include the icon.

As for the main types, it was discussed and I think the conclusion was that it wasn't going to be possible to add nor remove any.

As for the icons, I'd rather see them everywhere than nowhere
