Hi,
I'd like to have a "Unfinished Work" type in the Book domain for capturing unfinished written works. F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Last Tycoon" is an example. It's more interesting when another author finishes the work -- something more common with short stories. Other than that I can't think of any other property this type would have.
Along the same line I'd like to have a "Lost Work" type in the Publishing domain to apply to written works that no longer exist. An example here is Shakespeare's "Love's Labour's Won", which is believed to be a sequel to "Love's Labour's Lost".
An equivalent type "Lost Artwork" seems to make sense in the Visual Art domain as well.
Anyone else interested in these types? Are they enough to be types in the commons, or more suitable in bases?
