Request for Feature Enhancement (RFE) Summary: AEM Guides Content Authors face the issue of not able to use UI in Author to insert the new Attribute Value, instead they have to go to source view to add it. However, to make it come in Author view, the only option Authors find is to add in Folder Profiles, Conditional Attribute which seems difficult for Authors to understand and follow, Is there a way Authors can create new Value as they do in Source in Author view itself. Currently how it is handled:

Current/Experienced Behavior: Authors have to learn to add values in folder profiles
Improved/Expected Behavior: Values saved OOTB on first type and suggests for future without adding in Folder profile conditional profiling
