      I have implemented custom versions of the AutoGeneratedExtrasArea and SingletonParagraphTemplateModel classes (and added an ExtrasColumn class) so now we are able to configure auto-generated paragraphs for specific columns in the extrasArea. Currently all auto-generated paragraphs go into extras1, which is too limited for our current project.

      For example we can now configure a template like this:

      templateName
      extrasArea
      extrasColumns
      extras2
      autoGeneratedParagraphs
      someParagraph
      defaultValues
      someKey1: someValue1
      someKey2: someValue2
      name: someParagraph
      class: (custom).ExtrasColumn
      class: (custom).AutoGeneratedExtrasArea
      columns: 2
      modelClass: (custom).SingletonParagraphTemplateModel

      Along the way I have also changed createMainArea, so it is not necessary to have an auto-generated paragraph in the main area when you want an auto-generated paragraph in the extrasArea.

        Acceptance criteria
