Back-end field entries should be partialized

[robyurkowski]

Thought: when doing a form, instead of generating a long list of label/input pairs, each standard set should have its own partial with passed arguments. The advantage of this is that a user can override a single partial and update all the text / WYSIWYG / select items sitewise in one go.

At the very least, the complex items will need to be partialized, such as the WYSIWYG field (its markup is substantially more complicated).

A potential alternative to partials: @preferences is defined in the controller as an array of already existing preferences... the preference_field_tag will spit out the appropriate form element (checkbox, text field, etc) based on the type of preference.

  <% @preferences.each do |key|
    type = Spree::Config.preference_type(key) %>
      <div class="field">
        <%= label_tag(key) %>
        <%= preference_field_tag(key, Spree::Config[key], :type => type) %>
      </div>
  <% end %>
