Hello,

When you create a doublefield with long text as field type, the default value for those fields is a textfield. It should be textarea to be conform with the field type you just chose.

That's related to other field types as well.

Storage and widget configuration are basically independent. It's rather tricky to keep them synchronized. Furthermore in some cases there are multiple options available (for instance select list and radio buttons).
I've added an warning to force users check the widget configuration when storage type has been changed.
