Dynamically configurable mappings

[anarchivist]

Hydra consists primarily of the following 7 mappings:

1. repository representation (RDF) to object properties (Ruby)
2. object properties (Ruby) to repository representation (RDF)
3. object properties (Ruby) to an index representation (Solr)
4. index representation (Solr) to an HTML show page
5. object properties (Ruby) to an HTML form
6. HTML form output to object properties (Ruby)
7. index search results (Solr) to an HTML page

It would be excellent if these could be dynamically configurable. #4 and #7 have already been done in Spotlight. I think it's feasible to make the remaining 5 dynamically configurable as well. I'd suggest starting with #3.

I've done some work spec-ing things out in Milan for object properties to HTML form https://github.com/jeremyf/milan. One pre-supposition is that the object may be comprised of multiple forms; Each form has context for filling out the data along with validations.
