I’m working on the new iteration of Meteor Toys, and have some features in mind that would be really beneficial if the package had persistent data storage. I’m considering adding a stealth collection through the debugOnly package, such as:
MeteorToys = new Mongo.Collection("meteortoys")
I do not see a disadvantage to this approach, but I suspect that it could annoy some people. If it does, then I could make it an opt-in feature, where the developer activates a new set of features by adding that collection on their own. However, I think it would be a lot more magical if you just add the packages and it all works.
What do you guys think about this?
