Description

I've suggested a few candidates for top-level types in the past, but I think this one is the most compelling.

Use cases (potential subtypes):

  • Groups
  • Friends Collections
  • Photo Albums
  • Music/Video playlists
  • Pages
  • Community Plugin bundles
  • Folders
  • Bookshelves
  • etc...

Benefits:

  • Standardized implementation of "custom order" functionality
  • Standardized convenience methods for various collection-related operations (e.g. getItems, addItem, removeItem, moveItem, etc.).
  • Covers lots of common use-cases
