I'd love to see your code on this, however what I've really been wondering is the following: When did AbstractSubTypeFieldType get added? It isn't in 1.4.1 (as far as I can tell that's the latest one that is bundled on their site). So, do I just need to grab it from subversion, and build it? And if so, is there a particular revision that I should go with? Or should I just pull trunk and use that, and last of all, is trunk stable enough to be used in production?
