More padding for column checkboxes (in gridfieldextensions)

[brynwhyman]

Update styling so the whole cell/padding for column's 'in results'/'in detail' checkbox is selectable.

Action this in: symbiote/silverstripe-gridfieldextensions#281

I think this needs to be raised on symbiote/silverstripe-gridfieldextensions, since that's the component that renders the inline editable checkboxes and the same request here would be valid for all implementations of it.

Things to consider when doing this:

• We may need to add a label for the checkbox in order to make it clickable
• The label needs to be accessible and not confuse screenreaders
• The checkbox identifies the column header as its label at the moment, we'd need to change that to the label

Thoughts @brynwhyman?

I agree it belongs on GridFieldExtensions. I think there should be a variant (probably through configuration) that allows label-less checkboxes in columns. It can still be screen reader friendly with appropriate html attributes. I personally would prefer that it also involve making the whole table cell the label for the checkbox - ie. making a click anywhere on the cell toggle the checkbox.

I'll keep this ticket in CKAN to track whether we action this as part of the CKAN initiative currently underway.
