[top posting]
To make things easier for the user we could enable the immediate fields while
the VM is up, all other field could be disabled until the VM is down, since
they will only apply in the next run (the user will need update them while
the VM is down).
This will be super easy for the user to understand, no need for warnings or
other indications.
iiuc this is the feature: to enable to edit fields while the VM is up.
for my other 2 previous comments:
- the table can be shared by several maintainers
- it would be _very_ nice to cross possible actions with MLA (really useful in
userportal).
