It would be great if we could have a `Whiteboard` field type that allows us to tie a whiteboard on a 1:1 mapping to a database entity. For example, we have the option now of turning off Documents in the workspace and simply use the rich text field as a document’s content.

In a similar fashion, it would be great to be able to turn off Whiteboards in the space and have a `Whiteboard` field that links internally to a single whiteboard, instead of the current behavior that allows for multiple whiteboards to be attached to a single db entity in the `Whiteboards` field.

Either that, or something like a `Canvas` field that stores the raw whiteboard content and a special whiteboard view that allows us to embed other fields into it, like a comments field for example from the same DB row.
