 Description   

Jcr node form tool is a small addition to configure a form tool subapp to edit jcr node - without further java classes by configuration only.

For technical details, see the commit on MGNLUI-4284.

The feature can be documented e.g. as subpage of ToolsSubApp descriptor.

We also should check, whether the feature still works on UI-6.0 (and 6.1).
However, it is for sure available for 5.7.x ... 5.6.x to be checked.

I have to check whether I still have an example somewhere, which can be used +/- out of the box. Otherwise I can prepare on.

Here is an example which works on 6.0. I just had to remove the third field "encryptedPasswordReference" since it used custom java.

Yes, czimmermann, thanks. I remember this one.
I was creating the encryptedPasswordReference since I wanted it to showcase the password manager ...
... but yeah ... again ... custom Java.
Maybe I create another PR to get that one too into UI ... which would allow a non-JAVA app to use the password-manager to store a reference to a password field by using the form tool subapp

That would be nice too. It's certainly a common type of use-case for the formtools.
