Prompt Metadata
The package Prompt controls how UI elements are displayed in Control Center or Explorer.
General
In contrast to the Display package, which concentrates on how the models components are displayed, this package concentrates on the way each instance of a component is presented.
One example of a metadata belonging to Prompt is Confidential, which handles a property like a password, meaning that its values are hidden and replaced by stars.
There are two base entities which are used in Prompting: EntityPrompting and PropertyPrompting. Each extends (are subtypes of) their respective component metadata, EntityMetadata and PropertyMetadata respectively, and are the super type for all Prompt metadata in this package.
The metadata in this package only affect entities and properties.
