Yep, it goes along the lines of what we are doing with displaying Nested
Documents in the UI (view mode + wysiwyg and maybe inline for edit mode),
but doing Nested Spaces in the platform (java, actions other than view,
wiki syntax edit mode, etc.).
And it also has the added bonus of allowing us to preserve our sanity :)
Thanks,
Eduard

Hi,
I'd like to make sure I'm understanding things correctly before

Let's take an example. Say I'm on page .../A/B/C/ (so that's
"A.B.C.WebHome") and I want to create "D". What would happen with
your
proposal is this:
- In WYSIWYG mode, I'll create a link to a new page called "D" and it
will automatically create a link to “A.B.C.D.WebHome" - In Wiki mode, several possibilities:
- I create a link to [[D]] => it becomes a link to [[A.B.C.D]] (new
terminal document)
Almost. I’ll create a page [[D]] in the current space.
- I create a link to [[A.B.C.D]] (new terminal
document)
correct
- I create a link to [[A.B.C.D.WebHome]] (new
nested space)
correct
Is my understanding correct?
yes. Please take into account the fact that there are plenty of macros
that accept a reference as input (include macro, display macro, context
macro, etc). When used in WYSIWYG we would use some special displayer to
let the user user a tree to select the document but in wiki mode, the idea
of the proposal is to let the user fill the exact reference (including
WebHome).
