Hey All,

This thread kind of got warnocked. Perhaps a re-post will help? :)

I decided to start with a simple auto-complete element. I can envision the yaml file looking something like this in it's simplest form:

- name: foo
  type: Prototype::Autocomplete
  url: /foo

Q: to set the url programatically, say, via the catalyst context, would the best practice be to override the element with a custom one that does just that? (in new() perhaps?)

Further to the above config, you can set the update_id, and also a generic set of "options" to be passed along.

With respect to the update_id, if it's not specified then it is auto generated as "${id}_auto_update" -- this element most likely does not exist and much be created.

Q: (more of an api question...) If update_id is specified, should i assume the user will generate that element themselves?

Q: What's the best practice for injecting elements into the form from custom elements?

I see the the Dojo::Repeatable element, you're adding some elements to _custom_elements() -- should i copy that practice?
