> ATLAS-1193 introduced UI to create and update entities. Currently the UI allows an user to create entity of any entity-type - including the superTypes like Referenceable, Asset, Process, etc. It may not be useful to support entity creation of many such entity-types via UI. Restricting the UI to support only a subset of entities would make the UI more usable and avoid potential confusion.
> It should be possible to configure the list of entity-types supported via a configuration, to enable deployments to satisfy specific needs. I would suggest to use a configuration like:
> {code}
> atlas.ui.edit.supported.entity-types="type-1,type-2,type3"
> {code}
> - if the configuration is set to an empty value (or not set): UI should not support create/edit of any entity
> - if the configuration is set to is set to "*", then UI should allow create/edit of any type of entity
