July 18, 2024 / 🍱 Bunch of improvements

First and foremost, I must say that each of these enhancements — especially: (1) extending to inline comments the entity-mention functionality of which (in stark contrast to their entity-level counterparts) they’d been previously denied (and thus erasing the last mark of discrimination between the two, and in so doing bringing the two classes of the Fibery “Comment” into a state of full equality); (2) the exact disclosure of a triggering-rule’s identity (hugely helpful!); and (3) the ability to have (not-just-one-but-multiple) Highlight DB’s (what a fascinating and unexpected surprise) — is a truly superb, hugely life-improving, and exceedingly time-saving one, and (whether each is considered alone or when together) evoke the great sense of respect, care, and love that the Fibery Team surely has and must have for (first and foremost) Fibery itself, and more importantly for its users. That is so very much appreciated, and as always my many thanks to you, Michael — and the entire Fibery Team — for bestowing upon each of us such a wonderful array of gifts.

Secondly (and admittedly based merely on my few minutes of use with these new functionalities so far) I do have one quick question if I may, specifically regarding the first of the above-listed improvements — the addition of inline-comment entity-mention functionality. More specifically, it appears that — unlike their entity-comment counterparts — inline-comment entity-mentions do not seem to trigger the usual/expected generation of a back-link/reference in the referenced entity’s References field (i.e., as seen when entity-viewing the same). As this behavior appears to differ entirely from what happens everywhere else in Fibery, I respectfully suggest that it is indisputably unexpected. And so, if I may ask, then: is this in fact (as I assume it to be) unintended behavior (or could it instead be intended)? As, in my view, the natural extension of such back-link/reference functionality to the newly-added inline-comment entity-mention would be tremendously helpful and beneificial across the board, I very much hope it to be the former. Either way, my many thanks for your time and consideration (and for all things “Fibery” as always).
