Cleaning data during import
Despite the DFC standard, there are some differences in data schema between data-servers. For example while Locavora stores description values, they do not separate this into long and short descriptions, and they store HTML in the database.
The data is valid, but in the CQCM client application we wouldn't want to render the HTML (we shouldn't assume that every data-server has protected their descriptions from XSS attacks), and we may want to set a maximum length on short-descriptions.
The proxy is not supposed to be a source of truth on the data, so modifications are currently overwritten - making human intervention a less attractive solution. Automatic cleaning of fields and modification of data during import could be a solution, as could front-end code for achieving a similar purpose.
