#### **Context**

**Goal 1: Architecture**

The goal is to assess the requirements in the original epic (#AUTOWORK-283) and come up with a coherent approach and UX flow that is:

* as easy to understand as possible

* plays well with other changes we're planning, notably:

* Independent form objects

* Project-level type variants

* can proper scale and extend when we extend this feature: 

* by introducing other planes of contextualisation (eg. status-based rather than project-based)

* allowing additive contextualisation (add additional fields instead of only being able to disable them)


**Goal 2: Update mockups**

Marc's original mockups are quite detailed already and very well thought-out. However, the data (and indeed mental) model was a bit different back then, and variants did not quite exist. We need to update the mockups accordingly.

#### Overview

It's useful to be able to compare where we are at the moment and where we want to be.
