The usability of the radio-checkbox hybrid should be review. Current discussion: http://www.redhat.com/archives/freeipa-devel/2013-February/msg00130.html

We need to improve the design.

Summary of the proposed design:
- Functionality should be equal to partially mutual exclusive checkboxes.
- Radios should ensure the exclusivity
- Inherited option basically means no checkbox checked

PAC: ( ) Inherited
     ( ) None
     (o) Type:
        [x] MS-PAC
        [ ] PAD

Problem: It cat get into not desired state:

PAC: ( ) Inherited
     ( ) None
     (o) Type:
        [ ] MS-PAC
        [ ] PAD

It basically means the same as Inherited because Type has no value, it's just
a switch.

Problems with that state:
- it's a valid value: ""
- forcing to check MS-PAC or PAD doesn't seem right

I think there could be a simple solution here:

Why do we need a "Type" header? They all seem as they are all types under PAC options.

PAC: ( ) Inherited
( ) None
(o) MS-PAC
( ) PAD

{{{

This would not work since MS-PAC and PAD are not mutually exclusive but rather additive. If you want a simple list then you need also to have a MS-PAC + PAD option

{{{
PAC: ( ) Inherited
( ) None
(o) MS-PAC
( ) PAD
( ) MS-PAC + PAD

That makes sense. I think this is clearer than the checkboxes.

Move all uncompleted tickets to next month bucket.

What would be wrong with this?

PAC: ( ) Inherited
     (o) Type:
        [ ] MS-PAC
        [ ] PAD

i.e. None would be given by selecting Type: with none of the options.

It's not intuitive.
