A prioritized list of Harmonia framework gaps found while migrating Eclipse Dirigible (its application shells + code-generation templates) from Harmonia 1.24.2 → 2.1.0. Each item has the workaround Dirigible used and a concrete proposal, so Harmonia can absorb them and the workarounds can be dropped.

Doc: docs/dirigible-integration-feedback.md

Requests (by impact)

  1. Charts: add polarArea + radar — Dirigible's report/intent DSL allows bar|line|pie|doughnut|polarArea|radar; the last two have no x-h-chart-* equivalent, which blocks dropping Chart.js.
  2. Charts: export / print API — charts are DOM/CSS (no <canvas>), so the platform's canvas.toDataURL print path can't be reproduced. A toImage()/print() helper would unblock it.
  3. Lucide: react to a changing :data-lucide — the name is read once, so runtime-toggled icons (chart/table, play/pause, sun/moon) had to be split into two <svg x-h-lucide> + x-show. Match x-h-icon's reactive data-icon.
  4. Pickers: a read-only/display mode — only disabled on the inner input works today (greys the control); a value-display read-only mode would suit preview forms.
  5. Built-in icons: add inbox, eye (and an upload alias of import) — common app chrome that currently falls back to Lucide.

Also records why harmonia-i18next was not adopted by Dirigible — a fit issue with the platform's registry-driven catalog model, not a Harmonia gap — so it isn't re-investigated.

No code changes; documentation only.

Captures the framework gaps hit while migrating Eclipse Dirigible from Harmonia
1.24.2 to 2.1.0, each with the workaround used and a concrete proposal:

- Charts: add polarArea + radar types (blocks dropping Chart.js in Dirigible).
- Charts: an export/print API (DOM/CSS charts have no canvas to snapshot).
- Lucide: react to a changing :data-lucide (currently read once; toggled icons
  must be split into x-show pairs).
- Pickers: a first-class read-only/display mode (only disabled input works today).
- Built-in icons: add inbox, eye (and an upload alias of import).

Also records why harmonia-i18next was not adopted (a platform catalog-model fit
issue, not a Harmonia gap) so it is not re-investigated.

…er), not a Dirigible-only ask

Add a 'Who it helps' angle to every item so the reusable, framework-wide value is explicit; keep the Dirigible use case as the concrete example only.
