This was extremely helpful. I do have a few comments, though:<br>
<br>
1) I think this would have been easier to find if there was a link to it from<br>
the 'see also' section of<br>
<a href="https://wiki.evolveum.com/display/midPoint/Resource+Schema" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://wiki.evolveum.com/<wbr>display/midPoint/Resource+<wbr>Schema</a><br>
<br>
2) The syntax for the table itself as described on<br>
<a href="https://wiki.evolveum.com/display/midPoint/Lookup+Tables" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://wiki.evolveum.com/<wbr>display/midPoint/Lookup+Tables</a> seems to have two<br>
errors:<br>
<br>
1. The closing tag for the second entry in the table is missing the `/`; and<br>
2. The tags for each entry in the table should be 'row' rather than 'table'.<br>
<br>
These two changes allowed me to create and import a table properly; I was not<br>
able to do so when each entry was in `<table></table>`.<br>
<br>
3) The rendering of a field that is restricted in this way is not perfect- it<br>
still behaves a bit like a text field in that I can type arbitrary values into<br>
it. It does indeed prohibit disallowed values, but I think that the user<br>
experience would be a little nicer if it were rendered as a drop-down. This is<br>
a very minor issue, thuogh.<br>
<br>
4) No error is indicated when I _do_ try to provide a prohibited value. Since<br>
the field is a text field, it seems to allow me to type an arbitrary value in<br>
and submit it.<br>
<br>
Thanks again!<br>
