Description

In the relation reference widget it is possible to add new values without having to open the linked table first (comfortable).

We would, however, like to have a unique constraint on the "display expression"/"display column" to avoid double entries.

We need to discuss several options how to achieve this:

a) having a separate "value list manager" that takes care of it, but can also handle other stuff, like renaming/deleting values

b) Using the existing QGIS constraint mechanism (haven't found a way to check a newly entered value against other already existing values in the table though)

c) introducing a new "built in" Unique constraint on a table column
