Hehe ... then we should talk. To be honest, please tell me if you want
to give this another try - or if you want to have a look at another
topic as well.

And your current solution seems to fit perfectly with regard to this
goal. It's great to hear that you care about the current UI constraints
- and how to provide a good solution nevertheless.

I'm currently thinking about whether something like the "Custom Document
Properties" [1] might be a next step - the UI design pattern might fit
here as well. Mmh ...

Cheers,
Christoph
