Idea:

I would like to see a complete overhaul of the Symphony Programability Model:

1. we need a way in Symphony to create template and file code, much like VBA is used in Office. It needs to be code that executes when a document is opened or a new document is created from a template. It does not need to be LotusScript or VBA. Javascript might be best here, as long as it is powerful enough

2. Some way to create dialogs that are included in the Symphony document

3. A language binding between Symphony and Notes. This should be LotusScript and allow for complete automation when writing code in a Notes application. LotusScript prefered

4. A total overhaul of the way Symphony works in Composite Applications ... I should be able to include any of the 3 applications, or a file, without writing a line of code. There should also be an easy way to map the bookmarks/fields/cells/ranges to the PropertyBroker

5. A true COM API to that I can automate Symphony from Outlook or Visual Studio.NET

6. True OLE2 support for empbedding Symphony into another application or document and the ability to automate that placed object

7. True OpenOffice.org 3 plugin support ... these work like Firefox plugins. We need the model to create them and the hosted site to distribute them and for users to browse and install.

Idea:

Currently when a view is wired to another component in a composite application, we define the event handler in an action. Ideally each wired property would become a view event to which we can bind event handlers. For example, in the PostOpen:

On Event propertyId From Source Call handleProperty
