I don't think this is a good idea. I've never seen any application

Hello devs,
I'd like to reorganize the document footer as depicted in
http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Mockups/DocumentFooter ,
namely:
1: Tags will be displayed after the document content, as links to tag
pages, and not in an input element in the Information tab as they are
now. They are still editable in view mode by clicking an edit button
available after the tags list.
Shouldn't tags be more visible and displayed before the doc content
instead? If not, then I think we should add a "View/Edit
tags" entry in the
action menu, same as what we have for comments, attachments, etc
You mean the "Show" menu?
2. The
"Created by ... on ..." information about the document will be
displayed before "Last modified by...", under the document content,
and
not down in the page footer, where it seems ambiguous (seems to be
referring to the whole wiki), nor in the Information tab.
+1
3. The "Information" tab becomes
"Related documents", since it does
not
contain the tags and the creator anymore. The related documents are:
* parent (editable in view mode by the same mechanism as the tags)
* children
* included documents
* links and backlinks
+1
4. A new "Rights" tab is displayed for
admins after "Related pages",
basically providing the rights management UI.
+1 although I don't think it's just for admins. It should be to anyone
having the rights to change the rights (ie edit rights). However it
should probably not be displayed in simple mode (only in advanced mode). Does it mean anything for the edit panel? Does it mean
edit mode will
be only for editing the content, objects and class? Do we keep both?
(same question for the history and tags/parent).
Hm, interesting you asked this. Actually this change was a step towards
a larger reorganization of the UI, with the final goal of eliminating
the edit mode completely. But more on this later.
Yes, this means that the rights edit mode will be removed from the Edit
menu and the edit mode panel.
