[TYPO3-core] Q: change in flexform display?

[Kasper Skårhøj]

Hi Dmitry,

Yes, it was me who changed it. In fact, changing this part is not  
critical for my main work on flexforms which was on DHTML features. So  
we could restore the old look as an option. Of if the majority of you  
wants the old look as default the new one can be the option. Feel free  
to implement that. The new look has at least the advantage that it is  
not table based. In fact, this was the reason why I changed it, to get  
rid of tables and using <div> instead. Necessary for nice nesting.

However, I believe we should work with Jens Hoffman and Benjamin Mack  
on improving the options for display. Here are my main ideas (attached  
image):

a) That fields can be listed side-by-side. Like "Movie title" and  
"Movie poster image" below. We can imagine that subsequent fields are  
just "floats" like this - or that they are positioned with some  
absolute numbers. I don't know.
b) that items (like "Basic row") could be set up in a sort of "table  
row" fashion. WIth the new dynamic of flexforms this view could be  
highly effective way of making tables!
