Content Settings+solution
As you can see, in this scheme there's no need for hard/soft, that's determined by whether you use *content or *default.
Migration looks like this:
1) rename: <type>+*tform to <type>+*type+*default. (takes care of soft templated permissions & content)
1a) if hard-template, add <type>+*type+*content (takes care of hard templated content)
2a) if hard template, rename <xxx>+*rform to <xxx>+*right+*virtual
2b) else rename <xxx>+*right+*content to <xxx>+*right+*default
It occurs to me that virtual cards will need to take the type from *content, I think. (instead of *default as the regular scenario)

the solution has been updated to address previous comment.

Is this implemented enough to test? Anything i should be aware of if i do some testing?

*content should work like hard used to, and *default should work like soft. *type should work like *tform and *right like *rform, and other sets should work, too.
Beyond that... hmm... dunno. We haven't really played with it on the interface level much. Would be interested to hear what you find!

how does *virtual work?
--John Abbe.....Fri Apr 16 09:32:27 -0700 2010
*virtual is gone (sorry, the solution section was out of date)

Go to settings subtab of http://test.dwagn.org/card/options/John_Abbe+tags and you'll see that *default shows no card, though you do get the "edit" link instead of "add". Clicking on edit works though. Ah, this isn't a problem with content settings per se, just a by-product of the fact that the only thing the form is being used for is to set the type, so there's no content to show.
I'm guessing this is something we want ticket separately, something like show something in contentless content settings?

I restored the migration stuff, though it clearly needs updating. It's useful for me at the very least, and may be for others who end up here when their Wagn migrates and they want to know what happened.

Otherwise looks good so far (ideally i'd bang on it some more). Very nice to see the set/setting stuff expanding to take over the Wagnverse!

Similarly to how Cardtype cards have a section of their settings subtab with "Settings for All cards", i think it would be helpful for cards that are a right of any cardname to have a settings section for plus cards that end with card name

"right content+*rform" appears below, but if you try to go directly to the card you get an Application Error. Hoptoad says, "CacheError: cached card right_content+*rform found but it's not in database"
Update: There's a caching issue here. E.g., on universal Related tabs you'll see a list of *rform cards that have been renamed, but in closed view they still show as +*rform. It would be nice if we could force the relevant cache to update on all Wagns.

Documentation:
mentions of rform to update (i updated the ones where it seemed like a good idea to me)
mentions of rform to update (haven't scanned these yet)
updates from hardsoft to contentdefault (haven't done this yet)
Ethan's updated structure, virtual cards and Pointer.
Anything else need updating?
