note: This project is in the realm of the pipe dreams yet.
basic idea
To be able to reuse the righ context information coming from the taxo-terms, to automate routine tasks or change the current node.
brief history, similar ideas
- system vocabularies
- they are introduced to serve a specific purpose
- for example the forum module uses them for all its hierarchy needs. This is an example of very specific, reuse of the "vocabulary" context
- the slides on http://conference.iproms.org use a system vocabulary to prefill templates for different slide types
- action/workflow
- while this couple does not use the context information from taxonomy, it does come a long way to take into account the context of the node. It introduces state, which is an explicit label for a workflow state, attached to a node. The ideas are somewhat similar, but their targets are different.
