Description

Am I correct in assuming that it's not possible to deselect all node types from the "Node type condition" list in the node edit screen? Or is this a browser or drupal problem?

A solution would be to always add an option "none" (and possibly add a Javascript that will then actually deselect all but the None option). This way, if you accidentally select a Node Type Condition you can undo your mistake.

Or perhaps Drupal has a standard way of dealing with this.

I just had a customer complain that they couldn't deselect the node type they had accidentally selected. I had to go into the database and remove the selected node type by hand, which is Not Fun, as it is not clear what the values in the relevant field stand for.

I am willing to try and patch this myself, but would like some feedback on what kind of solutions you would accept. In my earlier report I already listed a possible solution.

Please let me know if you are interested,
