Description
Currently when editing a document through the Couchbase server dashboard, flags get reset. I know the common advice is "don't use common flags", but your client APIs do expose it. So I don't consider custom flags a bug, I consider them a feature (an advanced/power-user feature, sure).
The moment you edit a document in the dashboard, it would be nice if one of the following were to happen:
1) Flags don't get changed.
2) Flags are exposed in an input field on the screen with the current value in it, perhaps with a "set to default" button next to it if you must.
I think solution 2 would be optimal. In any case, this would be a most welcome addition to the editor, since the default behavior is making my data unreadable (through my transcoder) and I have to write scripts to correct documents that no longer work (quite a pain).
