How to make Symfony an even better framework? Somethings I thought of:
- I would be nice to have more custom type form fields in the backend. For Example, if I have a Int field in a Model DB-Table and I want it to carry just digits from 1 - 6 (a Rating), I cannot render it to a select field without making a new (Model) class for just this one Table-field. A bit to much overhead for not even a byte of information IMHO. - A easy way to get the config data in admin modules to give it an alternativ View or to transform the model data (in JSON for example) would benefit the great backend generator. - As Jon wrote the extendibility of the models could be extended. If you have an Model inheriting from another, the PEER Classes carry no information of the Model which has been extended. Same goes with the Model Classes. The data retrieval is actually done by the references not the extending itself. - Also multi inheritance of the model (not model classes of course) would be really helpfull in some cases.
