It would be much better to not have the system Default View (AKA every single field) applied to a new model when creating. Having just a few fields that we know will be in every database as start would be better and would save time. Either this or make it easier for us to remove and add columns or use existing model views to apply to new Models (as long as they are in the same context).
Yes, the Curator would need to manually add fields. We could have the default be just a handful of fields that will always be in a database but having every field makes it very time consuming to create a new field. Especially if that context has many fields. We either need an easier way to delete all the fields (remove all) and an easier way to add fields in mass. However, the point of this is the default shouldn't be every field but to let the curator pick the fields he needs.
Clay - please confirm if the following - when creating a new model, the curator will need to manually add the fields into the activity.
