In the list of properties for a view, offer a verbose listing of properties. Perhaps a switch to toggle between the "whitelisted" set of properties and the complete set.

I have less need for this now. I wrote a tool to patch ViewAttributeMapping.plist to add mappings.

I still think this would be useful so I've reopened it.

I can think of a few ways to go with this:

  1. Add a switch to Symbiote to toggle between the default whitelist mappings and "all properties". This gives the user the least control over the list, but does allow them to see the full range of properties.
  2. Allow the user to extend the mappings by adding a UserViewAttributeMapping.plist file to the bundle.
  3. Make frank-skeleton create the mappings by merging the default mappings with a user mappings file. This would be useful only for people who use frank-skeleton.

I like the first two options. We could implement each of them, separately. I'll get started on option 2 today. Maybe one of these days I'll have the stamina to implement option 1.
