Description
A common use case is to be able to categorize records in every advanced website. Besides that, there is the need to share categories across records. So far, each extension has to bring its own category implementation which is not an ideal situation.
To fill the gap, we would like to introduce a new category record type (sys_category) along with an API where extension developers could register their own tables to be categorized. The relations will be stored within "mm" tables as a less time consuming approach.
A first patch will provide:
- "sys_category" and "sys_category_mm" tables with SQL definition and their TCA
- a registration mechanism where third party extension can have their SQL fields + TCA generated on the fly.
