i would very much like to see bob's suggestion implemented, i.e. to jump
to the parent document if a document is deleted.
that reminds me of an issue i wanted to bring up a while ago:
the document with the id "/index" has an implicit special meaning. if
you delete it (which is easily done), all of the lenya authoring
interface will explode in your face unless you recreate it. bad.
i was wondering whether it might simplify things if we had an immutable
root page that is only displayed in the authoring area and cannot be
deleted. the issue becomes obvious in the site tree overview: there is
no root, and you cannot for example paste a document under root. you can
only paste it as a child of some existing document, never as a
first-level sibling.
so it would be really nice if the "authoring" entry in that overview
would have an actual page associated to it, and you could click on it.
this root page could become the default backlink for any error messages,
(in fact for every piece of code that currently assumes that an /index
node exists).
it would enable users to paste stuff like they are used to, and there
would be a parent element for every document, which means we can have a
generic solution to this deletion problem without conditionals.
comments?
