Description

It would be nice if the web interface could highlight information that is unique, that is information that BASE requires to be unique. A symbol or colour in the list view table headers would be nice.

I made a quick scan to find all those columns. I might have missed some, but here is a list of the columns I found:

Item Columns (*)
Files Name
Directories Name
Reporters External Id
Users Login, External Id, System Id
Groups System Id
Roles System Id
Plugin types Interface
Plugin definition Class
Job agents External Id
Quota System Id
Clients External Id
Help texts External Id
Platforms External Id
Platform variants External Id
Data file types External Id
Quota type System Id
Protocol type System Id
File type System Id
Mime type File extension
Software type System Id
Hardware type System Id
Extra value type System Id

(*) All items (including those not listed here) also have the ID column which is unique

Some items (eg, reporters) are also part of many other listings. Those column should of course also be marked.

Implemented support for this and tested with the reporters table. Now it only remains to mark all columns with the appropriate code. It is rather easy. Just add clazz="uniquecol" to the <columndef> tag. To change the appearance of the unique column change the style definition in table.css.
