<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>I'm thinking of a module called: Select Option Values<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>It would pull out part of CCK's text.module functionality
from admin/content/node-type/<type machine
name>/fields/field_<field name> and put it on its own admin page with
it's own permission. The problem with the location of the setting, as it is
now, is that you have to have "administer content-type" permissions
in order to get there and that is something rarely given to a client, at least
in my experience.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>But the allowed values maintenance for a select list is
something I <i>want</i> to give over to client content-editors/admins.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>My current workaround is that I designate the body field of
a particular unpublished node for that purpose and provide a link to it in a
the custom admin area I typically build for site editors.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>I put the following code in the "<span
