Problem/Motivation
AKA Entity display route in core
Steps to reproduce
Product managers for Drupal CMS have identified this requirement:
The ability to use nodes as micro-content (e.g. reference fields) without having to decide up-front if you want routing or not. E.g. consider event content-type with a location field. You can model the location as a taxonomy term, but then if you decide at some point you want to treat location as content you have to do a migration. Ideally you could create it as node content but turn off the full page display. At present this would require something like rabbithole.
Proposed resolution
- Resolve #3481362: Add path/pathauto integration in a performant/acceptable fashion
- Adapt the code for core
