Hi Chanaka,
In our current form, we have clear choices: structure, data, structure
and data (could be improved with just two checkboxes, one for structure
and one for data, but this is another subject).

What I find confusing is that you are adding near these choices, another
choice which is (I think) a subset of the structure.

I would classify a trigger as being part of the structure (it's more
related to structure that to data, right?)
