Add support for documenting / viewing form widgets

Created on 9 February 2023, about 2 years ago

Problem/Motivation

It would be nice to have a list of all form widgets and what entities are using which widget.
This should be available strictly from the data that is already in drupal.
The report should show

  1. The name of the widget
  2. What field types use it
  3. What fields use it
  4. what content entities display it

Questions on this:

  1. Where should the list live?
  2. Should form widgets be documentable?

    I have a site that uses ECK and has dozens of subtypes with a mix of fields.

    I would like to enforce some consistency in things like the order of fields and formatter settings.

    It is tedious to make adjustments across so many types, and some changes get lost.

    It looks like the content model fields list could be enhanced with more form/display info and links to configure.

    Adding widget info to field list is proposed in related issue.

    (Is that for Field Search, or Content Model Fields?)

    The field list (not field search) is destined to have widgets added at some point ✨ Add form widget to field list Active
