Description

See discussion:https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/appc-ti-alloy/wCIpVlJX8MQ Hi all, I think widgets for Rows/Sections are not really reusable across multiple applications at the moment. I have a feature wish to allow Require or Widget elements in TableView view markup. Example:

<TableView>
    <TableViewRow title="1"/>
    <TableViewRow title="2"/>
    <Require type="widget" src="org.test.tableviewsection" title="section" />
    <Require type="widget" src="org.test.tableviewrow" title="row" />
    <TableViewRow title="3"/>
</TableView>

widget.xml would contain a markup as follows:

<TableViewSection platform="android"><HeaderView><Label>Test</Label></HeaderView></TableViewSection>
<TableViewSection platform="ios,mobileweb" headerTitle="Test"/>

I know it could maybe work like this:

<TableViewSection><Require type="widget" src="org.test.tableviewsection" title="section" /></TableViewSection>

But not in the use case above. Because of this limitation I have to create all of my tables in JS and cannot use any markup / styles. Alternatively I would have to copy/paste the widget.xml markup for each Section/Row. Cheers
