<Possible addition>TextArea as input settings

[nitin2003]

Hi,

Today, while interacting with a client, he wanted to input all the options within the setting form instead of adding data in files and pointing those file to the corresponding options because according to him - 'It is too complicated'.

So, I was wondering if we can have one more input setting type as textarea where we can enter multiple lines within a given space and later on use it within the template by converting it to a list.

Can this be added as a future add on? It seems to be a good option for people for whom 'It is too difficult to configure files'.


Thanks,
Nitin

Something that could be better when working in project maker tho.
1) When using TEXT{multi|height} it doesn't seem to be possible to set a default value for more then 1 raw, what's the trick? I've tried with shift+enter.
2) Let us be able to set default values trough Demonstration (preview icon) -> Input parameters. Right now those values gets deleted when we close the window and we have to set them trough the InputSettings table.
Being able to set those trough the preview window would help when setting selecting files, and it'd be possible to click instead of writing for boolean options.
