This module is amazing! It helps many of my current issues. This should totally be rolled into the main views module. Here is a humble list of feature which I'd love to see.
Allowing per field editing. Perhaps with a checkbox on the field setup. This way, I could display a list of nodes to change their taxonomy, but not allow the node titles to be changed.
Play nicer with Taxonomy Access Control. Editview will only display taxonomy to a user with the administer taxonomy permission. I use TAC to restrict certain terms to certain roles using the TAC 'create' permission. The current setup means that users will have complete access to taxonomy, which is no good.
A list view. This would allow more flexible theming, wouldn't it? Or at least, more flexible layout. Some of my taxonomies have long help texts which cause the table to run off the screen.
Change location of help text. I have some fairly long help text strings which cause the taxonomy cell of the table to be very wide. Perhaps it could be wrapped and included in the table heading, or toggled with a checkbox while editing the view.
Most of this is to allow a bulk taxonomy editor. I also have a heavy cck museum-type site that I think this module would improve immeasurably. I'll be interested to see how it interacts with the imagefield/imagecache setup I have.
Huge thanks to the developers and sponsors!

One more came to mind.
Toggle adding nodes Mostly I'll be editing existing nodes, so being able to hide this would be nice.
Use field input type. This should allow tinymce to display - n'est pas?
Publishing options as selectable field items. Now I'm pipe dreaming, but could you have a checkbox for node attribues like, 'is published' or 'comments off/read only/read-write'. You would select them from the views field picker, similar to 'Node: type', but ''Node: Comment Settings". Those could then be modified in bulk too.
With some additions, this module would allow for an admin/node section on crack! It blows the current admin tools that I've played with out the water.

hello
i think, its one of the most important modules to develop :) because in this way the stuff becomes really userfriendly for the first time so: put it into the viewscore :)
and its not an easy done job - so good luck and thanks a lot ....

Keeping open to consider with next release.

I agree with the original poster that this module is a powerful concept. It might be good to separate these feature requests into different issues so they can all be tracked separately. I've created a few feature requests that partly overlap the ones above.
