This is an effort to bring the power of DPL to the average user who is probably not willing to write complex scripts.
It is based on mw:Extension:Simple_Forms as was suggested by User:Nad. The layout doesn´t look nice -- mainly because SimpleForms has trouble with table formatting. Atthe moment it doesn´t seem to be possible to use table layout within the #form extension body ..
Anyway, the ggod message is: The GUI is NOT hardcoded within php code but it is contained in a 'normal' wiki article. This article (Template:Catlist) cintains a form definition with an action which again calls the very same article. To make this possible, a nice little tricky extension called Call extension was added.
