patch of customfieldadmin for support multi select field

[osimons]

With #5838 and #7015 as examples, what really should be done is make the plugin extensible so that other plugins (like some multiselect plugin itself) could contribute the 'multi' editor without changing the plugin itself. That way 'multi' would not be an option if the plugin isn't installed - which is easier for other developers, and more natural to users.

By default the plugin will be supporting the types of fields supported by Trac, and I won't be adding any 'multi', 'date', 'time' or other types of fields unless it becomes part of standard Trac.

However, I'd be happy to commit a patch that makes all fields types 'pluggable' - including the standard ones. The plugin interface would then be responsible for storing and clearing such fields, and also provide the hints needed for generating the input/edit fields.

Please make multi-select field part of the standard installation or plugin.

Hi,
