Comment 2 for bug 1050384

I just filed a duplicate of this bug without remembering this one. In any case, my proposed solution has changed. Here are my comments from the duplicate bug:

I case see cases for and against including these reporter sources by default. They provide solid, tested, and maintained sources that ease template creation for non-developer or non-system-administrator end users, but they do make some PINES specific assumptions, especially regarding the use of statistical categories. In PINES asset.stat_cat.ids 1 and 2 have special significance, as they were used to port legacy categories over from PINES' old ILS. There may be other assumptions I'm not thinking of.

In any case, however, I don't think it hurts anyone by default to have these sources fully available, but it does create confusion to have them available in the interface but not technically usable. I'm working up a branch that will install the PINES views by default, and I'll let the community decide whether or not that's a good idea ;-)

And here is that branch:
