I really would like to see this fixed. Currently there is no way to clear a connected value from a form. For example, if I have a PROJECT object that contains a connection to STAFF and I assign a STAFF to a PROJECT there is no way to unassign that person except to:
1) Replace them with another STAFF connection.
PROBLEM: We won't always have another STAFF person to connect to.
2) Create a NULL STAFF record and assign them to that.
PROBLEM: This is a hack which then screws up our formula which counts how many projects are unassigned. Because we have assigned a blank record it will think it is assigned when it is not.
3) Go in the backend and clear the field.
PROBLEM: Our users don't have access to the backend so it then requires a manager to manage this.
This seems like a fairly common need so hopefully others feel the same and it can be fixed.
Thanks, Kevin
