[html-formfu] Re: RFC: automatic constraints from DBIx::Class column_info

[Zbigniew Lukasiak]

My first thought was that those constraints should be generated into
the config files - just as I did in InstantCRUD, so that people can
modify them.  But then actually it makes sense that the database
induced constraints are fixed. They are the minimal set of constraints
- so you only need to add other constraints to them not modify them.

There is another aspect of this - the list of fields a FormFu has, it
also can be deduced from the schema - and I think there is the place
for generation.

Is there any reason to split the ResoultSet name to schema and table?
Why not use

constraints_from_dbic: [ 'MyApp::Schema::Table' ]

?
