Individual field edit

[anonymous]

This is a great plugin that is really something that will help all TRAC users in the community out immensely. Thank you for taking the time to do this. I would just like you to consider a modification as stated in: ​http://trac.edgewall.org/ticket/525

FULL TEXT BELOW:

I'd like to offer a slight variation on this theme. I wrote a Quick Change module for a task tracking intranet (attached). I first thought about going down the road described above, but the more I used the system, the more I decided that what I wanted was field-by-field changes that may vary row-to-row. Meaning: I didn't want to force users to make the same change for every item checked. I might want to change 10 items to a new version, but change their priorities one-by-one within that version. So, I just allowed the user to select a number of items to quick change and then the next page (or the same page if you love Javascript) gives comboboxes and text fields allowing you to make the changes in a spreadsheet-like style. Much more powerful, useful and user-friendly.

To illustrate, have a look at the attached screenshot. I selected three items to quick change. The first 3 columns are editable on an individual basis. In the trac case, almost every column should be editable.

Something similar is already implemented with the GridModifyPlugin.
