Well. It will be only called "Record" in the php code. Whenever user 
will see that in BE it will be called "News" / "Article" / "Some Other 
type of record". So you never create record "Record".

This is because the speed I thing.

Why should I create all flexforms, all the options that are the same in 
all aplication (like show page browser / records per page / pid / 
category / SINGLE VIEW, LIST1, LIST2 etc.). Make it also language aware 
with labels and you put a lot of time in the "base" that is the same in 
almost all record managment applications.

Just waste of time.

I know it would be the best but not all clients have so many funds to 
pay for the application made from scratch to his model.

So :)  Could news2 call the repository of general entity "Record" ? ;)
Ok. Just a kidding. You right let the news be news :)


I belive sooner or later there will be some general record managment 
application in extbase. (also as a starter for real model)
