Suggestions

WhatPriorityWhen*Done?
NPE on the auto-removing the last assignment in the profile(thumbs up)Now(tick)
Exception on the CMR while saving(thumbs up)Now(tick)
Enable information icon on the default profile(thumbs up)Now(tick)
If possible tool-tip in the search button that is disabled Soon(error) not possible
Make one non-active entry in the agent mapping as example (hard due to the possibility that environment does not exists) ? 
Enable OK button in assignment only when all valid(thumbs up)Soon(tick)
Split long text in tool-tips in several lines(thumbs up)Soon 
Validator for the FQN and correct wild-card usage(thumbs up)Soon(tick)

Confusion with the defaults profiles

  • Default profile should be the one that is added to each environment when one is created
  • Common profiles, enough to mark them with name/coor, no need to have additional column for it
(thumbs up)Soon(tick)
Fix confusing add button(s) by displaying pull down menu(thumbs up)Now(tick)

*  Now should be finished by next test subject, Soon should be fixed by the integration time, Future is future
