I'd like to propose an initiative to reduce the amount of boilerplate code in various parts of Drupal core.

Some existing issues that would fall under this:

- 📌 add an entity Links handler, to provide menu links/tasks/actions for entity types Needs work
- 📌 Introduce entity permission providers Needs work
- #3029291: add a generic plugin manager class → -- currently a patch for the Plugin contrib module, but could be repurposed for core

Other ideas:

- constraint plugins require two classes -- could they be combined?
- provide an Entity list handler that shows the basic fields OOTB
- ... ?

  • Needs framework manager review

    It is used to alert the framework manager core committer(s) that an issue significantly impacts (or has the potential to impact) multiple subsystems or represents a significant change or addition in architecture or public APIs, and their signoff is needed (see the governance policy draft for more information). If an issue significantly impacts only one subsystem, use Needs subsystem maintainer review instead, and make sure the issue component is set to the correct subsystem.
