Problem/Motivation

The bundle plugin system is a great solution to provide entity bundles in code. However often you will still want to use the UI for managing fields, form- and view modes for each bundle.

It would be nice if the module also provides routing and and controllers for the bundles provided by the bundle plugins.

That way bundles may indicate the 'field_ui_base_route' property to point at the bundle plugin page and the field management tabs will automatically appear.

Steps to reproduce

Proposed resolution

Remaining tasks

I've added the necessary annotation to the 'entity_test_bundle_plugin' entity type as an example. It would be nice to implement tests.

Have a look at https://www.drupal.org/project/entity_admin_handlers - it sounds like you're doing something similar.

I had a look and the module does exactly what I was looking for in pretty much the same way. I can also confirm it works.

However, could it be a good idea to add this to the contrib Entity module anyway? To make the bundle plugins a little but more intuitive and straightforward?

Up to the maintainers to close the issue or do something with this, for now I'll leave this on 'Needs review'.
