Component body
Provides field administrators a setting to turn specific fields into a "property" where saving revisionable entities will update field data for all of the entity's revisions with the revision's field value.
Why is this useful? Imagine the following scenario:
- You use Taxonomy for access control.
- Taxonomy term data is revisioned.
- Revision 2 of a node is assigned to term "foo".
- Revision 4 of a node is assigned to term "bar"
In Drupal, both versions would be assigned to term "bar" in regards to access control rules. This can confuse users. So this module forces that taxonomy change from "foo" to "bar" to be replicated across all versions of the field data.
