Thinking about creating a new extension with a bunch of workflow events that could be useful in many situations. What is your most common/felt need?
Current ideas: - a new multiplexer, based on node location within a subtree - switch new object creator to a given one - add to new object a secondary location (might already exist as an extension in projects: createmultiplelocationruleevent) - add new object as related object to some existing object's object_relations attribute- copy a given subtree as subtree of the new object (might already exist as an extension in projects iirc: ezssp)

one note... if a workflow event is really that usefull like a new multiplexer, based on node location it should be added to the core.

Please no more pollution of the core... If things can easily put in an extension why then putting it in the core? I would only understand this from the support-point-of-view, but if they make a supported extension out of it it's no problem either, right?

Actually I was thinking rather about an extension developed on my own (spare time), so no official support from eZ Systems would be provided. But I think I can make it beer- or pizza-ware for people wanting to have commercial-grade support ;)

Well, this could be something we can discuss as part of the community improvements... Maybe a Community certification process for extensions, to make them more reliable ? But this would come with a few constraints imho.
Or maybe something closer from real extension approval / certification, as it would benefit everybody... win / win situation ;)

@Bertrand: a topic for a thread on its own (or for the new-community-portal thread)?
