[IxDA Discuss] IxD for building a list

[Juan Lanus]

I'd also consider if it's the case of a user who already has pieces of
the list in his local computer and would like to copy and paste.
It's like Cecily's suggestion plus some inteligence for to recognize
other separators like newlines and the like. May change depending on
the OS.
The user MUST have an instance for the revision of her work before
clicking an "accept forever" button. Also, the user has to be aware
that the button is there and that nothing irreversible will happen as
long as the button is not touched.

Wha't the length of the list, does it have many columns or only one?
This changes the scenario.
> "... add multiple items in sequence, ..."
The timing is important. Is it a web application with a server trip
for each item? (This is my assumed scenario). If so then doing it in
an ajaxian way would help a lot, bacause of the server trip time, but
specially because this way you let the user work without pause,
catering on the "asynchronous" side of AJAX, and specially without
moving the form and the focus.
