> ATLAS-1193 introduced UI to create and update entities. Currently the UI 
> allows an user to create entity of any entity-type - including the superTypes 
> like Referenceable, Asset, Process, etc. It may not be useful to support 
> entity creation of many such entity-types via UI. Restricting the UI to 
> support only a subset of entities would make the UI more usable and avoid 
> potential confusion.
> It should be possible to configure the list of entity-types supported via a 
> configuration, to enable deployments to satisfy specific needs. I would 
> suggest to use a configuration like:
> {code}
> atlas.ui.editable.entity.types="type-1,type-2,type3"
> {code}
> - if the configuration is set to an empty value (or not set): UI should not 
> support create/edit of any entity
> - if the configuration is set to is set to "*", then UI should allow 
> create/edit of any type of entity
