Bruno Dumon commented on DSY-455:
---------------------------------

Maybe an exclusion syntax would be useful too, e.g. all document types except some.

> Currently the siteconf.xml [1] allows to specify the default document-type:
>     <defaultDocumentType>SimpleDocument</defaultDocumentType>
> this puts the most-likely to be created document for that site on top of the list.
> In more general terms however the repository might contain a whole lot of document-types that really should be totally hidden from the list of available document-types within the context of a certain site.
> For this filtering to occur, I would suggest to define the complete list of available document-types in the siteconf.xml file.
> Something like
>   <availableDocumentTypes>
>     <documentType>OneType</documentType>
>     <documentType>AnotherType</documentType>
>     <documentType>AFinalType</documentType>
>   </availableDocumentTypes>
> This should define the ordered list as is, to be presented when users take the menu option 'new document'
