Hello Vincent, I'm +1 only if we rationalize the breadcrumb at the same time. Currently the breadcrumb is already using the HTML Å symbol. having both document references and breadcrumb using this symbol would be a mistake in my opinion, as users would not understand the difference, and would mix one for the other.
To sum up, I'm -1 if we don't have this global reflection that includes the breadcrumb. (I don't have yet ideas of how to handle both in a nice way, but I'll come back if I do) Regards, Jerome. > Hi, > > We need a consistent way to handle document references in UIs. > > For example, on the rename template, the title is "Renaming <string > serialization of a reference here>". > Thus if the page is named "?." in the space "Main" for example we get: > "Renaming Main.?\." > Same for the wysiwyg editor's insert link dialog box (under the title we > have the technical reference printed). > > Proposal > ======= > > Since references are technical I don't think we should print them in the > UI. > > Instead we should print its constituents: wiki, space, page (or just > space, page when not in multiwiki or when handling a ref not from the > current wiki). > > This is what Caty has done in the Search UI BTW.
