We talked a bit at ensemble and Ana made the astute observation that the complexity of how Gizmos work using hand-wrolled single table inheritance is probably the biggest drag on development right now. So we're starting to untangle that by building up a way to `Slot` in `Gizmos` like the `Marketplace` or a `TextBlock` without the baggage of `Furniture`'s single-table-inheritance. Going forward, each `Gizmo` will need it's own `Model` and table for storing data; as we will eventually ditch the `furnitures` table completely.
We decided that instead of creating a `Slot`, we want to create Gizmos directly, and we want to make those `Gizmo` by sending users to the actual `/new` page for the particular `Gizmo`. We're thinking we will make the UI cards of Gizmos, so that they can include things like why you might want to add that Gizmo, or the help docs or the ... whatever. We don't know. It'll be fine.

@rosschapman ran into a weird bug when
ActionTexting theMarkdownTextBlockwhere the action text couldn't save itself. Basically we were using nested attributes with a faux-relationship; which meant the actualMarktdownTextBlockwas not getting saved.@anaulin pointed out that this is an example of the single-table-inheritance being annoying, and that maybe we should finally deal with the cruft and blurry lines from our initial
Furnitureimplementation.So we started down the path of a refactor where we make a
Slotresponsible for where in a particularSectionaGizmoshould live; and whichGizmoshould live in that spot.So we wrote a System Spec, and then we started implementing it and realized we had gone down the wrong pathyway, we want to create the
Gizmofirst and then add theSlot!So we're going to reset and move forward with making a
Cardfor eachGizmo!Sections#editpage so that our newGizmomanagement interface is a collection ofCardComponentsthat link to the particularGizmo's#newpage.
