A short overview of recent changes in the SNAPSHOT versions of the following modules:

Base classes for ViewElementBuilder now also have addFirst() methods to add children
AcrossModuleMessageSource no longer falls back to the system default locale for resolving property files
ContainerViewElementUtils now has several stream related methods for manipulating elements like findAll(), removeAll() and flatStream()
common ContainerViewElementUtils methods have been added directly on the ContainerViewElement for easier use
Bug fixes:
- AbstractViewElementTemplateTest now clears any default web templates before rendering

Added ViewElement name rendering when development mode is active
Label, control and help block properties of a FormGroupElement will now be returned by container find methods

List views now support a custom EntityQuery predicate (as EQL statement) that will always be applied when fetching list items
Enum property types can have a specific list of selectable values configured for form views
The base entity validators now implement SmartValidator - allowing use of validation hints
Default property controls will have their control name prefixed with entity. only if they do not have an EntityAttributes.CONTROL_NAME attribute and if they are native property
- This removes the requirement for some workarounds when manually adding (calculated) properties you want to make writable on a form
Bug fixes:
- Fix issue where table sorting was wrong if the sort property was different than the rendered property
- Fix delete view to use the entity based delete method - previously it was id based which caused the EntityInterceptor delete methods to be skipped
- Delete tab was not always highlighted in the entity admin menu

Extend LdapEntityProcessedEvent with boolean methods to indicate if it is the first synchronization of the object or an update
