Jose,
This would be ideal for my users, who are already commenting on the
issue exactly as per 281.
Justin.

Subject: Re: [GeoNetwork-devel] Metadata title
Hi Jonathan
For me the best solution (not for 2.6.0 as should be released early) is:
1) When creating a template in the metadata editor and click to save it,
GeoNetwork should ask to the user for a title for the template
(independent of metadata title field). This title should be stored in
the database (not as part of metadata xml) and be used to display the
templates list titles when creating a new metadata.
When creating a new metadata from a template, should work as actual
showing the default values for the fields filled in the template. But as
the template title is managed independent as metadata title field, the
user can leave empty the last one.
2) Same when importing a template from xml file, GeoNetwork should ask
for a title for the template.
3) Add a form to maintain template titles (maybe in actual form to
reorder templates changing a bit to allow edit the titles also)
Not sure if more places need changes.
Regards,
Jose Garcia

Hi Folks,
Further to my ticket http://trac.osgeo.org/geonetwork/ticket/281
and the comment at the end suggesting I raise the issue here on the dev
list - I think from a user-perspective that the "title" attribute should
be blank. At present it's populated with the title of the template that
it was created from. Personally I just think its bad UI to have it
pre-populated from the template.
(Note - I appreciate that metadata and templates are treated as being
essentially the same by GeoNetwork, but think some special exceptions
should be made, such as this).
Does anyone else have any thoughts/feelings on this?
Regards,
Jonathan
