[TYPO3-project-formidable] New property db to load items from a database table

[Manuel Rego Casasnovas]

Hello,

I've added a new property "db" that allows to fill items (a patch is at
[1]), for example in a listbox:
<renderlet:LISTBOX name="user" label="user">
   <readonly>true</readonly>
   <db>
      <table>fe_users</table>
      <value>uid</value>
      <caption>username</caption>
   </db>
</renderlet:LISTBOX>

This will show the list of frontend users, and the uid of that users
will be stored on field "user" of your table.

"db/value" is optional, if you don't use it "uid" fild will be used.

I don't know if you think that this property is or not useful. But, I'm
thinking on improve it a little more to be used for static tables.

I'd like to have something like:
<renderlet:LISTBOX name="country" label="country">
   <readonly>true</readonly>
   <db>
      <table>static_countries</table>
      <value>uid</value>
      <static>true</static>
   </db>
</renderlet:LISTBOX>

Where the listbox will be filled with country names based on current
user language (getting the country name from the different
static_info_tables extensions that are installed).

However, I'm not sure about the name of the property "db/static" maybe
another way to define it could be better.

What do you think?

Best regards,
   Rego
