Description of problem: The authoring kit details panel is: a) extremely confusing (full of random class names) b) fragile (there's no validation on component name, for example, so if you create an invalid component, it gets saved, and you are unable to author any Content item because the authoring kit wizard instantiates all authoring kit components) Solution: I propose that we remove this panel altogether. IIRC, this was actually an early APLAWS fork. I'm not sure why it's back in. Dan, can you comment?
Yeah it was a temporary hack because there was no way to add generic assets to all authnoring kits. Since i created the 'ContentAssetInitializer' concept its basically redundant & dangerous. I also think it will break CMS because it doesn't refresh the item.jsp page to include the components. I had thought about making its visibiloity a config option (bug 116148), but I think we'll be safer removing it altogether.
