This would be nice to have but is somewhat involved:

  • Currently, custom fields use the same datasource for editing and querying. This requires they be able to use different datasources (PhabricatorPeopleDatasource for editing, PhabricatorPeopleUserFunctionDatasource for querying).
  • Currently, custom fields use the same HTTP parameter type for editing and querying. This require they be able to use different parameter types (AphrontUserListHTTPParameterType for editing, something which accepts functions for querying).
