More preset enhancement ideas

[anonymous]

1. Allow length of input box for text: <text key="somekey" text="Something" lenght="5"/> : done in r5579
2. Label units at end of text input box: <text key="somekey" text="Long" unit="m"/> → #19077
3. Make groups of input boxes <group><text xxx/></group> and allow for several columns within a group (<group columns="3">) done in #8735
4. Maybe allow in absurdly huge presets to minimize groups : treated with #9190
5. Radio buttons for checks that have two or more true values, or even where different choice might alter the key:
   <radio text="Name"><button key="somekey" value="somevalue" text="A choice"/><button key="somekey" value="someothervalue" text="Another choice"/><button key="someotherkey" value="somevalue" text="A third choice"/></radio>: no, see #4901

Patch for first point (length of input box for text)

In 5579/josm:

see #8180 - Presets: Allow length of input box for text

I like the idea that a radio button might switch on or off or even preset several keys, maybe something similar to the way group uses <list_entry/>. Something like this?

<radio text="My group">
   <button text="Choice 1" default="true">
       <set key="bolean" value="true"/>
       <set key="number" value="3"/>
       <unset key="text"/>
   </button>
   <button text="Choice 2">
       <set key="text" value="static text"/>
       <unset key="bolean"/>
       <set key="number" value="4"/>
   </button>
</radio>

The unset will delete that tag as an empty choice.

We won't implement radio buttons.

I like the idea of setting several tags with a radio button or <check>.
