[META] Expose Title and other base fields in Manage Display

Tagging this with Field UX - while it's not a generic issue with the field UI, it is extremely confusing that you can control some things with field UI and some not, forces people back into templates and or looking around in content types settings forms or theme settings etc.

Take a look at https://www.drupal.org/project/base_field_override_ui →

As @AdamPS wrote in 🐛 Book printer-friendly version should respect configurable title display Needs work , that's no blocker.

So the (blocking) obstacles are now all solved and we can proceed with the further steps! Yay! :)

I added two issues to the list of phase A. 🐛 Wrong comment display for sites configuring base field display in the UI Fixed is "needs review"

Only one blocker left 📌 Reinstate important testing NodeDisplayConfigurableTest Active

Great so phase A is now complete.

I suggest that a good next step would be ✨ Add a tag select list in string Formatter Needs review . The code already exists in Manage Display module, so it just needs someone to write a test. I've moved on to other things now so hopefully some others have enthusiasm for the next phase.

I added two new issues to part A and any comments/work to help solving these would be appreciated.

These are not blockers so we can continue with part B in the meantime.

This would have been a great feature to have in Drupal CMS, but hopefully in 2025 it can reach completion?

By the way, the heading is "A Fix obstacles to manage display in contrib" which I understand as "semi-blockers", but they seem to not be?

@adamps:

Perhaps move these two issues below "C" under a "Nice to have" header to prevent users skimming the Issue Summary from concluding "Oh, A is still not done ..." and don't look at issues under "B", thereby stalling progress?
