[Gvsig_english] NavTable - new gvSIG Extension

[Benjamin Ducke]

Great!

What are your targets regarding features for the 1.0 release?
Personally, I think a great feature would be to have XML files
that can be loaded into NavTable forms and describe input field
properties. Those could allow users to customize input forms
to a certain degree, such as using default values for fields,
field type and value range constraints, look-up list for
rapid data entry, etc.

I realize this is a lot of work, but maybe some of the more
basic, very useful things such as look-up lists could be
implemented without too much effort?

While we are at it: a way to explicitly set a field value
to NULL (no data) would also be great.

Thanks for your good work,

Ben
