Determine additional product Tokens [#733356]

The following Tokens are currently defined in commerce/modules/product/commerce_product.tokens.inc:

[product:product-id]
[product:sku]
[product:type] (the human readable type name)
[product:title]
[product:edit-url] (the absolute URL to the edit form defined by Product UI... hmm, I'm guessing this should be moved to the UI module!)
[product:created] (this is a date Token that can be extended, i.e. [product:created:short]... defaults to medium)

This list does not include Tokens for the changed date or for the product creator, two default values of the product object. Furthermore, as mentioned above, the edit-url Token should be moved to a Token include file for the Product UI module and have an additional view-url Token added. This will go to the currently non-existent View page once #733044: Add build modes for products gains traction.

Are there any other Tokens that need to be added here? Does anyone know what we'll need to do for Tokens defined by Fields?

Patches welcome. : )

Ahh, and any additional Tokens will need to have Test coverage; see the testCommerceProductTokens() function in commerce_product.test.

Attached is a patch that can serve as a first pass as this issue. I'm not sure if $product_ui should stay as $product in some places.

Here's a list of possible additional tokens. Some will probably be defined by additional fields:

Item is Sold - However, this probably needs to be more than just a token
Description
UPC Code
Unit of Measure
Images
Weight
Category
Quantity in Stock
Tariff Code

Why not rather make a [product:creator] chained token that's a 'user' token type? That way you can have [product:creator:uid] automatically.
