easier way to relate two kinds of things
Story
This is a common pattern-- adding an attribute on MyType that points/links to some other type and then completing the relationship back the other way. This sequence is too complex to be accessible to someone without significant Wagneering experience, but it's so common that it would be wicked cool if "normal" folks could do it. Someday would like to inquire about short-cutting this sequence in various ways.
name type content
------- ------- -----------
MyType Cardtype
MyType+*tform Basic
Category Cardtype
Category+*rform Pointer
Category+*options Search {"type":"Category"}
Category+*tform Basic
Cards in Category+*rform Search {"plus":["category",{"refer_to","_self"}]}
I'm thinking that inheritance and default +cards might do it. that could maybe even be accomplished by the "autocreate" mechanism.

Tag with the tickets, ideas, blueprints and/or decks it's relevant to:
Can you say more about what you mean by inheritance?
And when you say default +cards do you mean some way to automatically create, e.g., MyType+*tform without having to put +*tform into Cardtype+*tform? Wondering if Pattern cards might be able to handle that?
