Hi all,

I'm hoping to raise again an issue I emailed back in june last year (as
its really starting to bother me again).
It would be really nice to let actions be defined on collections as well
as on mountpoints for both consistency as well as convience 9since you
often want/need to use a collection rather then a mountpoint)

I have been looking at the code again in Relation.js and still cannot
see any reason why this cannot be done as collections (like mountpoints)
are always specified for only 1 Prototype so being able to have actions
called on collections are after all HopObjects too.

>From my experiments all it takes is the attched patch.

Hannes this makes a lot of nice generic code possible so I'd really like
this to go into helma or at least really appreciate feedback on why its
not a good idea.

Thanks,
Maks.
