Hi, unfortunately I'm not willing to let go of the idea of using a content class as an object, because it would restrict the possibilities to label information. Besides a country content class I'm also thinking about a thesaurus content class. The keywords in the thesaurus are often related, and could be grouped under broader categories, and even in different languages. The same story goes for other labels I plan to use for content, such as project, theme and organisation. If I could use the content class as a label, i would be able to specify relationships between items in the 'labelling content class'. Even in the case of the country datatype it would be interesting to be able to express relations between countries, for example in the form of regions. It would also allow me to specify additional information, translations, etc. This is not possible by hardcoding the objects into a file. In case of the country datatype, maybe the template file containing the countries could be generated automatically from a country content class?
