Just to clarify, since it is not clear to me from the wireframes: Suppose I search on children, find none, select "Create New From Existing". Is there no "Save" or "Confirm" dialog? As soon as I click, it will create/save that new record, right? Will it also save a relationship to the current record? Or is the relationship only saved once I click "Save" on the current record? If I do the above, and then click Cancel on the current record, does anything happen? E.g., does it delete the just-created relationship (assuming that "Create New From Existing" also creates a relationship, above)? I assume that as for termCompletion in authorities, a newly created term is created and you cannot undo that. For termCompletion of child and parent cataloging records, is the field static (i.e., predefined and fixed) or is it configurable? Will we enforce any constraints on which field it can be? Could it be in an extension schema?

Patrick - Excellent questions. I have been modeling the interaction for structured objects on that of vocabulary terms - especially if we're using the same interface, I think users will expect the same behavior. So: - No save/confirm dialogue. Selecting "create new" creates that new record *and *the relationship between the new and the originating. - Cancel would remove the relationship if the record has not been saved since it was added; as you note, the newly created record, just like a newly created term, will still exist. - For the first pass, the term completion field should be object identification number. I am sure our implementers (present or future) would be happy if this field were configurable and if it could be from an extension schema, but you'll have to let me know the engineering cost of such a request. Is this field currently configurable for vocabulary terms? Would making it so here allow us to do it there as well?
