Adrian Crum commented on OFBIZ-1041:
------------------------------------

It's a good idea to keep a sharp line drawn between the service layer and the 
presentation layer. This patch introduces UI elements into the service layer.

Perhaps a better approach in the service layer is to simply check for "Y" - if 
it is anything else, default to "N".

Also, a UI pattern I have been using lately is to have the current data select 
the correct list element, instead of displaying it twice. Example:

<select name="allowSolicitation">
  <#assign allowSolicitation = 
(mechMap.partyContactMech.allowSolicitation)?default("N")>
  <option value="Y"<#if allowSolitation == "Y"> 
selected="selected"</#if>>${uiLabelMap.CommonY}</option>
  <option value="N"<#if allowSolitation == "N"> 
selected="selected"</#if>>${uiLabelMap.CommonN}</option>
</select>

Not that this approach is any better, it's just different.

>
> in contact forms field allowSolicitation is set to uiLabelMap.CommonY or 
> uiLabelMap.CommonN.
> it would be a good idea to force this value to Y or N because it is confusing 
> if you use more than one language
> additionaly different values break forms in other apps like crmsfa
> please see my patch
