key attribute & keywords

[janrif]

I added a keyword to an item & I thought wouldn't it be nice if I was able to do this thru a form instead of <CTRL>K so I searched attributes to look for keyword. -- no luck.

However I did find 'key' -- I guess some kind of unique numerical ID however HELP description didn't help.

So....

1. Do you think adding a keyword attribute that would mirror the keynote list would be useful? (I guess user could create a yes/no attribute to indicate whether item has keywords)

2. what the heck is 'key' attribute & what's a practical application for it?
