improving product options rendering

[krejcif]

Product options HTML is generated in two ways:

• by options template
• by swatch-renderer.js (if you have any swatch attribute on product)

What does it mean?

• extending look of swatches mean complex rewrite of JS renderer (to be able upgrade later)
• if you have any product without any swatch attr (quite usual), you have to also modify options template (doubled work)

Ideas what to do?

• merge logic into UI component
• some kind of inheritance from non-swatch to swatch approach
• get rid of HTML generation with JS string concats!

Main objective?

• streamlined customization
• better extendability
• M2 approach
