[ckan-dev] db_to_form_package_schema returns incomplete schema

[Kirstein, Fabian]

Hi Sean,

I'm not pretty sure if it is a bug, because I don't really understand in what ways the schema is used besides in custom
form extensions. For example in the default_schema the image_url of a group is missing but it is part of default_group_schema.
So it seems those two schemas are combined somehow normally, but not when I'm using db_to_form_schema.

db_to_form_package_schema() should be complete, if you've found anything missing from it you've found a bug. It would be really helpful if you could compile a list of what seems to be missing and open a github issue for this, as we need to fix this for the CKAN 2.0 release.

Thanks
